What the article fails to stress enough is how cheap it is. We are not staying in big city hotels with big city prices. The way it works out, we wind up effectively paying for our dinners and breakfasts and getting the rooms for free. Great value for money. Yes, it can be expensive to fly there if you don't book early enough, but the expenses once you are on the ground are amazingly low considering all that you are seeing and doing. 

Camping is surprisingly civilized too, especially when a few thoughtful people bring motor homes to share. 

Also, Gray Gregory plans to enter the race in his 1970 Chevron B16, which was owned by Steve McQueen and raced in the 1970 event and doubled as the Ferrari cockpit for all the close ups in the movie...so we will have somebody to cheer for even if Panteras get shut out.
