    This will be the last blast for the 2008 season finale so are there any plans on where to have a watching party? This will be a excellent chance to get all the fans together at a reasonable viewing time. This will be a great race so let's make it count.

    10:30AM CT Formula One on SPEED TV

    FORZA FERRARI!

    Sounds like a good idea.
    Maybe a centrally located bar (Neutral territory for all F1 fans).
    This is going to be a great race to remember.

    I'm in. Remember TMS weekend, so maybe somewhere opposite of there like Las Colinas or Addison. Where are the other F1 groups watching?

    I think the problem may be the 10:30am start. Not much open that early.

    I'll try to reach Scarlet Racer - maybe he has booked that bar in addison whose name escapes me at the moment?

    You think it would be a good place to watch Massa try to become the F1 World CHAMPPS?

    :p

    Just a suggestion, but would it be possible to have some reserved parking? I would like to bring the Ferrari instead of something else, but would need to have a spot safe from door dings.

    Otherwise, there is always the battered Porsche dog.

    This Sunday morning we'll be out in force to watch the grand finale to an amazing season LIVE from São Paulo. Champps will have their regular Brunch Buffet, Bloody Mary Bar & All-You-Can-Drink Mimosas. Pre-race starts at 10:30a, flag drops at 11:00a.

    We hope you can join us for what will be quite a showdown in Brazil, featuring points leader Lewis Hamilton and local hero Felipe Massa in a battle for it all.

    Sunday November 02, 2008 10:30a @ CHAMPPS in Addison TX
    4951 Beltline Rd, Dallas, TX 75254

    That's the first time I have watched a race with that big a crowd. You get revved up with the crowd noises on passes and
    pit stops, and it made it a lot more fun than watching at home. Thanks for putting it together scarlet racer!
