I got the email at 5am...and in my damn spam folder...

well it would be nice if their website worked to register people on the waiting list instead of kicking em.

maybe its not meant to be....since this would be my first track event

Mine is stock, except the exhaust, and I'll be driving from NW Arkansas. I'm not going to miss this once in a life time chance.

I am up for going, I just cant believe I got the email at 5 am and by the morning it was already full.

I can only hope that I get a email back from N.A so they can help me get on the waiting list...if that even exists...

Enjoy the event guys! *crys in the Z*

^ Fail. If you actually have the code and tried to register, you would have seen that there are wait lists for all the events that are already full. And last time I checked, there was still 1 event that was open.

Check the screenshot:

^^ html site fail. I saw that there is a waiting list. And I'm in Orlando Florida, I'm not driving to CT, which is the only open event. When I tried registering for the waiting list it kicks me to the start page saying there is an error with my event date selection. I emailed nismo academy to see what's up with my waiting list registration.

Check the screenshot:
I registered for the homestead one since I live in Fl, and since it's full it keeps kicking me saying I need to pick a date that's not full. So how one gets on the waiting list I don't know. Unfortunately I can't fly to CT for this event but I can drive to Miami.

Those are the people who ruin events like this because they were trying to profit off of free tickets.

i doubt somebody can buy somebody elses slot. when you show up, you have to have identification. also, spectators are not allowed (at least they weren't at COTA) so you can't just "show up" and get in unless you're on the list.

You're right, you can't take someone's registered spot but you certainly can sell/buy the code pre-registration, though
