 It's all about turnout.  
 Hey, serious question assuming you’re a race guy. 

Is this one worth it: 2025 Rolex 24. 
It’s in Daytona in January. 
 Definitely. 

I'm not American, but past couple years access was great from what I saw. Could get really close to the cars before the start. 

Also imsa rules make for very exciting rules. 

That should be the Valkyrie debut. Also Caddies moving to a different team I believe. Could be very exciting with all the moving parts. 
 *exciting races 
 Great answer. Worth is more about time & excitement & not $. 
Heading there with my nephew is Jan. 👍👍👍👍 
 Post some 📸 while you're there. I'm aiming to make Le Mans this year.  
 Imsa always exciting. Last lap stuff all day.  
 It’s 24 hours. Crazy & I need to figure out how that works as a fan. Stay the whole time. Leave, come back etc. 
 Don't know if I can advise rawdogging it. Especially for nephews sake. It will drive your head in. 

Before sunrise is nicer than after sunset usually. So don't be afraid to call it a day if you think you can make it earlier the next day. 

But be adaptable to bad weather to make the most of the time on track.  
 Re "worth it" imsa races don't strike me as being very expensive. But as I said, no idea about logistics.  
 I'm watching Petit Le Mans. Only an hour in 😂 it takes me all week to get through IMSA replays https://image.nostr.build/aff464740c75684786ca0628343d1e2506a22cbe00d8e31cff8cdc0935df7801.jpg 
 It’s definitely a passion.  My nephew is 20 & has loved it since he was very young.  Mostly NASCAR but pretty much all racing.
