We were there last year. We stayed after the start until it got dark then got dinner and back to the hotel for sleep. Back at the track in the morning. Spent some of the time around the pits and the paddock areas. Spent some of the time in the stands. But actually one of the best areas was around the infield. The Porscheplatz has a good location to watch from. There's also an area in the infield with food, drink and trinkets.
It's a long race, but you're free to move around and you can leave in the car and return without a problem. We parked in one of the infield areas which worked out well since most of the viewing areas we liked were there.
Not planning on going this year, but I'd go again. Honestly, I think the Sebring race is more fun. I've been to a lot of races and it's unique in that the it's a party surrounded by a race.
I also like ALMS better than Grand AM which probably plays a part in that too.
