    Default Petit Le Mans...who's goin?

    Just what the title says I'm aiming to set up friday night for a weekend of race fuel, burning rubber, liquor, and hot chicks. 10' x 20' cover, EZ-up, 6-man tent (actually a 1 man and 5 woman tent ), couple couches, a gaggle of coolers, and a grill...now if only we can find some power to run lights and the stereo?!! Just look for the AutoFAB banners.

    Maybe Paul can hook us up with IA banners too? *ahem*

    That's an issue I hear all the time with photographers...if someones not pushing it then it can't exactly be very profitable. Does he have a website?

    Is there any way to just go on Thursday to watch the night practice or something? Or do you have to buy a 4-day pass? Is the only 1-day pass you can buy the Saturday one?

My last one i started in Sept. 2 years ago and told them i wasn't working for them unless I had the week of the race off...still got hired
