It was calm for LRP and while the sharp end of GTLM and overall didn't ever seem to be in question, the rest of the field put on one helluva show, imho.

The Blancpain endurance series are 15 minutes more with 3 drivers.

Whatever one chooses to call it ... it was a proper race. Just about the right number of cars for a track that size.

I have yet to see the Conti race. I should look that up.

I'd say 2.75 hours is endurance in regards to a series You can't have a 10-12 race calendar filled with 24 hour races. You need some shorter races in there to make the long ones special.

Their format being worse doesn't make a 2:45 race endurance.

How long does it take for IMSA to upload races? This is the last of the weekend's race I need to catch up on.

Here's a few pics from my memory card

Northeast Grand Prix

I brought a piece of carbon fiber from GTD Porsche back home. TSA took my bag to secondary but I was allowed to keep that piece.

Good Stuff!
I like this one - shot overlooking No Name straight. Gives me a perspective I've never seen. Beautiful.

Some of those were just gorgeous. The English language needs an active verb to express feeling jealousy.

That is a different perspective from what we get on TV. The track looks great from up there.

Here's my Flickr photostream.

I haven't edited enough to make an album yet for the LRP round, but there's a few in there. The duplicates are ones that are cropped in height for a different medium.

The 75 Merc passing the Porsche is exceptional ... the #10 WTR being chased by the Flying Banana is also very, very good.

Look great! Thanks for sharing.
