The Spectator

[quick 52]

How does this work if you want to follow the event.... Can you park with the DW cars and watch then follow to the next track...

That's how is has been done before. When i watched in'09 i tried to park away from everyone so it did not look like I was helping anyone.

I personally wish they would separate where spectators parking and the competitors. I fear someone is going to lose equipment. Someone can park their vehicle next to a DWer's stuff, wait till they make a run then make off with tools, NOS Bottles, etc. Maybe I am just paranoid. .

When we were in TN in 2013 Sussino had his jacket stolen, the spectators parked right on top of a bunch of us and actually had boxed me in to the point that i had to wait for the guy to come back to his truck and ask him to move it. If you are going to tag along just use your head, park decent distance away and walk over, and like others said, if you park with the cars it is going to look like you might be a mule vehicle.

In 2013 at Gateway they were announcing that somebody need to move their car, they had parked in a DWer's pit stall!

Tulsa did a pretty good job of making spectators park outside last year. That does not keep them from walking by and jacking your stuff though.

Spectators can do about everything the racers can do except go down the track. I do agree that the spectator's vehicles need to be kept separate for the reasons already discussed. We followed the first three days of DW13. In Indy they made the spectators park a mile away....that was a little extreme especially since we had beverages in the car!

I parked wherever the hell I wanted in '12, but it was usually down by the scoreboards so we could sit on top of the trucklet and watch the finishes without messing up anyone's view. There was parking that said spectator, but you drive over to the race cars instead like you know what you're doing and they leave you alone.

My son might come a day or 2 with his friend to watch... Is it possible to get a second driver wrist band if they are only going to race 1 or 2 tracks.. I know that the 3 times I have made DW they did offer second driver option sure how it works....

Reports in the past are you pay an extra $50 during registration and you are good. Obviously, he would need to be present during registration...

These details might change with some of the changing rules on who can wrench on a given car...

R u sure he would have to be there during registration couldnt I just pay the $50 for his band and be done with it

[c2xejk]

I don't know, I haven't done it. My guess is there are some releases that will need to be signed so they will want him present. May also want to see that he has a valid driver's license too...

When we were in TN in 2013 Sussino had his jacket stolen.

Anyone with a jacket that morning would have looked very suspicious ! I think it was 100 by 8AM

[Doc's Notch]

It was his firesuit jacket... Whoever swiped it probably just put it right in their car.

Your right on that the group that we hang with had trouble with a starter and we were trying to get it going for a pass just a miserable day with the heat

What is consider a mule if your following and someone brakes as a Spectator are you allow to help them. Being its a Z06 corvette that I'm driving I could run for small parts or give them a ride
