THe Acura appears to have the best balanced chassis. I agree that it seems strange that the AUDIS Are changing rotors while the P cars and Acuras sail away.

Well, they did just say that the rotors normally last 24 hours, so obviously there is a problem.

They may have wanted to go to a different compound pad???? Must change both rotor and pads at same time with those brakes.

Careful: there's liable to be more P2 competition adjustments made.

I declare the Ford "facocked'. Now, did the yellow hurt the Spyders...?

Boo, an hour between posts! I'm sorry to see the Acura moved into 3rd and challenging for 2nd. I liked the 1-2-3 Porsche lineup there for a while...

Well Marco needs to run more road races. That kid can really get around them much better than an oval.

What happened to the Ford. I had to take a break to get some house remodeling done.

Last week, when we were in Colo, my wife went snowmobiling with me, so I had to go see the play Camalot, today. Just got back, and am watching Sebring, and the sound on Speed seems to be ok now. Anyway, I get to watch it til the end.

Anyone lose the Speedtv.com "in car" of the #7 P-car? I had it running for 9+ hours.

Now, I can't get any in-car!

Yeah, I think they might have shut them down in the dark?
