ok after research. Watkins Glen-it was about 75 per night for a room where we stayed last year. for 2 beds so figure 150-200 for the weekend for the room to split Toronto- prices are about 135 a night for 2 bed rooms. so 400-450 for the weekend to split among everyone staying in the room just to give everyone an idea ---

Pretty sure I’m in for Watkin’s Glen…I think by the time I got 2 decent tickets, parking, and other crap I spent $200 last year. I’m only about 30-45 minutes from the track so will probably just be staying at my place. As long as you guys don’t mind that drive i could probably open my house to a few of you guys…I’ve got a few extra bedrooms. Like I said it’s a bit of a drive but it would be free… [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-nyspeed-showcases-grand-prix-watkins-glen-july-3rd-to-5th-2009/65894.md?page=1) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/official-nyspeed-showcases-grand-prix-watkins-glen-july-3rd-to-5th-2009/65894.md?page=3)
