Rennsport Attendance

Jabbering with John Bell two days ago and he passed on, that Laguna has pre-sold 65,000 tickets :shock: to this date with two weeks to go.

I understand that they count each day as a sold ticket.

And this event will not be out here on the West Coast for at least 10 years....

Hi John,
Be interesting to compare how many spectators are at the Historics each August.
I'd be thrilled to see a 917/30 on track... 8)

Mike...I have no idea.

There were more 917 cars at Daytona that I even knew existed.

I was a little late/slow putting my trip together for Rennsport Reunion, and the Corral Parking is totally sold out. Does anybody out there have a Corral Parking ticket that they aren't planning on using? I'm willing to pay a reasonable fee for such a ticket...

I'm going to be there with all our polyurethane parts & 4 cars on display and in speaking to my vendor contact @ Mazda yesterday, she told me there were between 45,000 - 50,000 full three day passes already sold in addition to the 20,000+ two & one days tickets sold plus vendors row is now sold out now too.The additional 200 car corral sold out in 24 hrs so now there are going to be 1000 P cars in corrals...... :shock:

If you miss this event you are seriously going to regret it when you hear & see everyones stories & photos here on our forum!

See you all there! :rockon:

I have an extra regular 3 day ticket, valid Fri-Sun, but with no corral pass, if you're interested in that? $60. If so, PM me.


Thanks Marie, but I've already got 2-day tickets lined up. I just wanted to see if there was a chance to score a corral pass and bask in the Porsche glow from the parking lot...
