Going to US Grand Prix...possibly on behalf of SP?

I could POSSIBLY be going to the US Grand Prix this summer, which gave me a great idea.

With permission from Sniff of course, maybe me and my friend could get into the Press booth? smirk.gif But considering I'll be rooting for Jordan and my friend will be rooting for BAR, and every other American there will be rooting for Ferrari, if we snagged some pics could we possibly get featured in Sniff Petrol? I can see it now: "Two Americans, not rooting for Ferrari, yesterday"

Bare minimum we could snag a couple pics and provide info, right? Right?

What do you guys think?

Slick - nice idea, although I'm not sure that saying you're from Sniff Petrol will get you anywhere near the press booth. Actually, it's usually more like a large tent rather than a booth. Trust me, if the Sniff name got you into Grand Prix press areas and the like, I'd be there myself. But it doesn't. In fact, association with Sniff Petrol probably means you're more likely to be thrown out.

Still, if you're going to the US GP anyway and you can take some funny photos or something, by all means send 'em through.

Apparently the US GP has a penthouse-style thing on the top of the stands that's press only. Tickets to get into that are $150, just like the civilian one, but I'd assume you have to have some sort of press credentials to get in.

Have fun in Indy -- Only about a 2.5 hour drive from my house; I've meant to go every year so far, and something always comes up.
