Baltimore Grand Prix 2012

Tickets are now on sale! I think they are 25% off till June 11th or there abouts.

See http://www.raceonbaltimore.com for the official website. The website is pretty bare bones at this point, but what can you expect for this being the third and final promotion company.

Come out and support this local event. If you attended last year you know how great of an event this was, and we want to make sure this event comes back to Baltimore for the next few years.

Hopefully the NCC will have a car corral again...maybe Paul can chime in on that.

I found that the best Grandstand was 5, but that can be subjective.

Those are general admission and some reserved grandstand seating. Ive read that premium sales will start at a later date.

I'm still waiting on the new promoter to have discussions on car corrals. Hopefully soon

If you are going to stay I'd book your hotel now before they are sold out or prices are high. I just booked at the Homewood over by Little Italy for a good price.

I'm not sure what qualifies as Premium seating? I got reserved grandstand seating in GS 5.

Patiently and eagerly awaiting next steps. I have a minimum of 7 people (probably will be 10) that want to attend this event... the car corral last year was phenomenal, and I look forward to the same this year. Can't wait until the CORRAL tickets go on sale - hopefully.

One additional requirement for this year's BMWCCA car corral (assuming there is one) is that EVERYONE must be a CCA member. Tickets will be in high demand, and all members will have a fair shot to attend.

Non-members can obviously sign up for CCA beforehand, as this will be the only way to attend.

do you still need to buy tickets if you are in the corral?

no, corral tickets include parking, food, grandstand seating, and hopefully parade laps

I'll probably get in on that too. Would the price be the same for 1 car, 2 passengers?

The corral was excellent last year. I believe that we filled our allotment and were in line with the Corvette crew for the largest group. The food preparations were solid. Meeting the drivers was great. The parade lap was very cool. That's my review...solid, great, very cool.

Do it.

Subscribed for corral info. I'm a CCA member (Delaware Valley Chapter) and I knew nothing about this last year until I was actually there and saw all the BMWs. Needless to say I was pretty bummed.

Glad I happened upon this in advance this year, my car would've liked to join the party

you won't see much of the track with general admissions tickets. in fact, while i do not know the plans of the new promoters, the old promoters were planning to add even more grand stand seating in areas that didn't have them last year.

it wouldn't surprise me at all, if GA has zero sight lines.
