    You should be receiving your tickets soon if you haven't already. We're excited to have you in town for the event, but we wanted to remind you that you'll need BOTH of the tickets that will be mailed.

    One is to enter the speedway, and the other is to access the GRM Experience parking area and entry for the dinner/special events.

    They look like this, but will have your name on them instead of Tim's.

    Greetings Race Friends! Though I've been to this race many times, this will be my first time attending the GRM Experience at the Rolex 24 at Daytona. Would someone please advise, is parking for a ticketholder like me limited to certain hours on Thursday & Friday leading up to the weekend, or can we access the infield parking site at any time? I would like to arrive sometime on Friday night and get parked. Thanks in advance. Looking forward to meeting some new people!

    The track will be open for some hours during the week, but our area won't be populated until mid-day/afternoon on Thursday. Parking won't really be an issue until Friday anyway if the last few years are a guide.

    Don't forget the party at the UNO Chicago Grill across from the speedway on Thursday night! Rub shoulders with some of the teams and drivers, eat fabulous pizza, and bench race with fellow guests and magazine staff members. Good times!

    Thanks, Tom! I'm most concerned about the Speedway's staff allowing fans in cars with the proper ticket & parking pass into the infield to access the GRM parking area at any time of day or night, especially on Friday after the track's activities have concluded. Thanks, again!

    No worries. The parking area will be open the whole time and will have official Daytona International Speedway security minding the gate, so you're welcome to come and go as you please.

    The only caveat I'd offer is that the infield can get quite full on Saturday. There were times that the tunnels were closed to clear congestion, so some folks got stuck outside the speedway for a little while. I'd suggest being inside the track on Saturday morning and planning to stay until dark for minimal frustration.

    I'm attending the race, but with a non-GRM experience ticket. Is it possible to buy tent access and a parking pass at this point?

    If not officially through GRM, does anyone have anything for sale privately at this point?

    Yeah, what I really wish is to have parking access if possible. I already got endurace package tickets with parking, but I wish I had access to GRM parking so I can hang around with the cool kids, watch live coverage and have easy access to snooze in the car during the night.

    I am hoping not every ticket needs the parking so I wish I could score a parking spot with the cool people.

    GRM parking passes are in very high demand, but at this point they're all taken. Your best bet at this point is to find one from a group or couple that are carpooling, because we simply don't have any more.

    If you get there early enough, the parking on the other side of the access road and just past the restrooms is pretty close. These spots fill up early though.

    Next year I'm gonna scalp a set!

    Of course, you're always welcome to visit our area as a pedestrian.

    Hi Tom ... We had a GREAT time! Thanks for all of your hospitality! I enjoyed the fresh hot coffee and Krispy Kreme donuts on Saturday morning the the chicken pasta dinner that night. Looking forward to seeing you next year! Thank you!!
