Petit HELP!

So I'm planning on coming to Petit for the first time this year and I'm looking around for the best deals on air fair as I can (I'm flying in from LA), and I've found one deal that's significantly less expensive than the rest, but the only problem is I'd need to be at the airport to fly home at about 5am, the Sunday morning after the race.

I'm pretty sure the guy I'm camping with can't get me there that early and I'd rather not pay a huge amount for a taxi. Does anyone have any suggestions on getting to the airport on time that quickly after the end of the race?

i'd love to give you a ride, but like your buddy, i shall be in no condition to drive saturday night or that early sunday morning.

i know there are some airport shuttles around, but.....man, that's an early! can't get a later flight? that's the only suggestion i got. leave later.

good luck.....while you're there, come find us in turn 4 and have a couple.

Decided to bite the bullet and pay a few bucks more for a flight that works better.

I'll be camping with a buddy between T5 and the back straight.

Does anyone know if RA offers a "hidden" student ticket price. I know Sebring has one, but they never advertise it as it's much cheaper than a normal ticket.

Smart choice. The airport is on the other side of town from Road Atlanta with a fair distance between the two.

Off-topic - can you get the Sebring student price on Fangio or Gurney terrace seating?

I have never found or heard of student pricing at Petit.

I can second that, Road Atlanta does not offer a student discount.

Is it too early to think of a place for a ten-tenths meetup?



Cheers,
Phil

Ah, turn 9... Say hi to Captain Martini and gang. They have been camping there for a minute.

Glad you changed your flight. I like to be helpful and all, but that's a haul.

Since you're not a student anymore, why would you care?
