wow, eh i was there workin.......... 15 was killin it..... did u guys happen to catch the touring race....?

[Tygma]

I didn't catch ALMS on Sat. but I was there to watch Miata challenge, Speed GT, GT3 cup and Grand Touring. Papis rules, I was rootin' for Wulf in the teal Porsche, though. It was a shame that he got the shit knocked out of his car on turn on the 17th or 18th lap, damn!

yeah well blah...... we almost won the smc races both times....... and touring car.... i was workin for the wheels america cars.....we should of so won the touring car race.... that audi was fast and we had a jump on cunningham.. at the start...

I ended up only making it to Sundays event. I really wanted to see the ALMS and Star Mazda series, but touring cars rock. It was a great day. The Touring car race was the best!
One major disappointment was the GT cars, sense when did it become a Viper vs. Vette series? I have not been following the series the last year and a half unfortunately, so I guess I missed it when Volvo, BMW, and Audi dropped out. Only 5 different types of cars is boring. Oh well, it was still great to be at the track.

i didnt get to catch many races just the races we were participating in, but it was dope to watch the le mans car at nite.. definetly seeing the brake rotors light up before a turn was a good thing to see.... im not very fond of the star mazda series... i really hate those things espacially when the drivers are revving the engine in the paddock they get to be very annoying... i really liked the smc races...

[SpeedMonkeyInc]

Don't like Star Mazda!?!? OMFG I love those cars. The racing action is so intense because the cars are 99% the same. I am sure having to be very close to a bunch of them revving would not be so nice....rotarys have always been like that.

Yeah saw that Sil80.....I was way to busy with the black FC parked right next to it. That was about as far into the car show as we got. I just don't care much for parked cars.

i didnt even know there was a carshow... hmmmm.. did u guys happen to check out the paddock area... and check out all the fancy setups all the rich guys have...? star mazda is okay im just not a big fan of it that much... i prefer production cars.. or the gt stuff.. maybe next year i would probably dip my hands into the regional smc stuff.
