The gravel slope that is the highlight of my trip to make it down without killing myself is certainly not maintained, and is incredibly dangerous to navigate. To get to the inside of Turn 12, you have two options: 1/2 mile trail hike from behind the karting track to Turn 12 100 yard downhill "adventure" from behind the Lions Camp stand. It's your choice... |

I've experienced both, and I'll take the walk from the Kink, at least when going in the downhill direction. It also has the advantage of several small breaks in the trees where you can look down on the track as the cars whip past at full tilt.

Canon. Don't post there too much. I only post links since my pics are too big for there posting guidelines. I post most of my stuff at Fred Miranda, the air racing websites, Facebook, and of course my own website.

They had that lineup at Mosport, no? Didn't make miracles happen there. Good drivers but it's still a semi-pro and someone without tons of GT experience coupled with Yokohama tires. The Risi lineup is not ideal, but they should likely have the edge still as long as the car isn't flung at the weeds.

For those who haven't made the trip down there. This video is from a legal distance. There is a fence preventing people from going closer that has been knocked down in years past. RA has became more strict since that glorious year.... |

Pagenaud and Gonzalez rejoin Level 5 for Road America. Looking forward to seeing Pagenaud back in the ALMS, even if it just a one-off.

Headed to the airport in about an hour. I look forward to meeting more 10/10th-ers! Feel free to stop by the Falken Tire rig anytime.

When was the #20 Dyson scheduled to join the LMP1 field, if at all?
I seem to remember Dyson Racing mentioning something of that sort. |

I hope somebody at the track takes pictures of ALMS cars and Grand am cars parked next to each other.

IMSA GT3 runner Madison Snow is in at TRG in the #68 and livery change/confirmation on #7 BAR-1 (like #8 but with reversed colors). |

Thanks again, Andy. I wish TRG would finalize their entries for the rest of the season. I dislike all of this flip-flopping nonsense.

The Stevenson livery, most likely inspired by Flying Lizard, looks great parked next to the Porsche (also great).

I voted with my money to not watch cars like that, and will continue to do so. |

The wheels, tires, and livery on the Stevenson Conti Camaro looks better.

It may be a tube frame, but that Camaro is one of my favorite cars running today. I like the livery a lot, I like both drivers a lot, I like the team a lot, and I love the way it gobbles up the curbs and looks very compliant. I may be a bit biased though, as I grew up in a Chevy household and have always liked Camaros. I wish there was a diecast version of the car I could buy. |
