Rob; For the last two years I have tried to up grade to stand H and was told that it was sold out. We finally moved to the NW Vista in Row Z between turns 2 and 3 and the view is quite good. Also there was a gal selling Foster's in the section we were in and that was real nice last year! |

Frank, interesting pointer. I'll check it out. Gerald: "It was necessary to click on "purchase tickets" on the left side after you were on the website." DUUHH!!! Now I look stupid. Darn. Oh well. I guess I was too hung up on the events, that I overlooked that. (Andreas - wiping off the egg from his face) |

Also, if you're eligiable join the American Legion Speedway Post #500(317.244.9625) which is across the street from the track. It only cost $60 a year and you get free secured parking during the race much closer than you can buy elsewhere. They have a nice bar and restaurant with TVs and reasonably priced food and drinks. It is a great place to take a break in the a/c on a comfortable couch and have a drink. I joined during the 2000 race and have kept my membership since just for the F1 race every year. |

Your right, Andreas. The link by itself didn't take you to the page to order tickets. It was necessary to click on "purchase tickets" on the left side after you were on the website. |

Gerald, your links work fine, yes. But they don't get me to the order page for these tickets. Nevermind, Bob solved the mistery. However I still don't understand how you would find 'Bob's site from their main page? Furthermore they require Paypal only for payment. Sheesh, could they make it any harder? I guess this will be one exclusive event... |

Andreas, Did you TRY clicking on the two links I posted? I click on them and they work just fine. I realise that the link you had posted doesn't work. But I went to the two links I posted, copied the information, tested the links, and they work just fine! |

Bob, you da man! Obviously they had this page all along, but no link to it from the events page. Thanks much! Frank, thanks for the pointer. If it weren't for the amount of $$$ I would jump on that one in a heart beat. But good to know for when the stock market returns... Thanks all! PS: Bob, you might want to order your own ticket as well, in case you want to go to the GP with me. |

Gerald, not to be a wise a_ss, but the web site you just mentioned is exactly the one I'm having problems with (see my post a little lower). That's the one, that NEVER gets updated. They missed the June 15 deadline and they don't offer tickets for sale now despite of what their ad claims in the FCA newsletter. That's what confuses and frustrates me. |

Go to www.owners.ferrari.com and you can buy the USGP Paddock Tickets for all three days which includes seating above the Ferrari pits, all food and beverages(alcohol too), a daily pit walkabout, meeting with the drivers and other team members and more. |

Thanks Gerald, but that is not the same: FCA offers the hotel package deal. Nice but I got my own accomodation. FCA Indy offers a package for everything else going on (parade, concours, dinner, parking and F1). That's what I'm looking for. ...still no luck |

Go to the FCA website: http://www.ferrariclubofamerica.org/ And you will find information about their package deals for the US Grand Prix. |

Rob, this is what I'm looking at: http://www.fca-cic.org/frames.htm I'm not concerned about tickets for the race (there will be plenty, a low turnout is allegedly expected). What I'm looking for is the package deal from FCA Indy where you get your F1 ticket plus your slot in the parade plus your dinner invitation plus the parking at the track side. The idea was also that when you buy it through them, you would have gotten a ticket to take your Ferrari onto the F1 track last Sunday. But I missed out on that one already because they never offered their tickets for sale via website. According to the FCA newsletter one can already purchase these tickets, but not according to their website.

I'd like to order my tickets for the FCA event at the US GP, but for weeks the site doesn't offer anything to order. Yesterday was the track day for which you could only get tickets if you had bought your FCA US GP tickets, but obviously that's not possible. Am I missing here something? |
