    Too bad about the corral. It was a muddy mess last year, but still fun.

    I would suggest that we just designate an area to park and tailgate.

    I got my 740 stuck last year and it took me like 7 hours to clean the interior out but I had a great time.

    Can someone just sneak in and change the sign that says "Porsche" corral to "BMW" that will really annoy them. Or better yet, change the "Corvette" sign to really annoy the blow dried chest hair/gold chain set.

    This is our first time to Petit Lemans.
    I was counting on a BMW corral, but that seems unlikely now, based on the info in this thread.

    What is the best way to park your car nearby (access to cooler, clothes, chairs, COOLER...) and enjoy the race?

    Or do we need to pay $300 for the Club experience?!

    To rub salt in the wound the #90 BMW GT finished first last Sunday
    in front of the gathering BMW OFest crowd at Road America in Wisconsin.

    Now the BMW team is tied with Ferrari for second place for the drivers (Mueller&Hand) and winning the manufacturers points with 125.

    The biggest event at the end of the year and no car corral.

    What a shame.......

    Wow, hard to believe it has been 10 years since the 2000 corral/Oktoberfest/clubrace on Sunday.

    That was a awesome weekend, racing on Sunday after the Petit with a good bit of the crowd still there watching our races. Especially with Bill Auberlen running our race in a PTG M3.

    Audi has a corral.
    I think its sold out.

    It would be interesting to understand how BMW NA, BMWCCA and a local chapter could not create a corral for a series in which they have participated all season, and are going for the championship.
