I got i my BMW 2 weeks ago so i didn't sign up for any Oktoberfest events but I do live in Atlanta. Anyone coming down for the festival and anyone going to the Petit LeMans this coming weekend? I have a crew of at least 20 people who will be doing it real big on Spectator Hill at Road Atlanta!!!

I had pondered going to the Petit LeMans. Do you suppose tix and a hotel room might still be available? I would come down Friday night, watch the race, and crash a 2nd night to avoid a late night 4 hr drive.

Tickets are always available because their is not much grandstands like an F1 race. The whole track is basically one big camp ground. I haven't even gotten my tickets yet but I will get them Thursday when we go and put up the tents. I have a friend coming down from Va Saturday morning so Friday night would be even better. Hotels won't be a problem and i'm sure hotels.com would give you a reasonable room within 15 mins of the track. Let me know if you gonna could down and surely meets us on the hill. We always enjoy guests. Good race, good food, good beer and good times.

No pix from me. I opted out due to the rainy forecast.
Guess what? Rain is forecasted for the whole 10 hour race!
