I'll definitely be there on Sunday all day, but doubt I'll be able to get out there on Saturday...
I expect to meet one Rennlister out there though on Sunday (he IMd)... He's a fellow 6GT3 owner from Portland...

Just got home from the track. Temps were 80 degrees and it was clear and sunny. The racing was very good - so be sure to watch it on SpeedTV tonight at 10pm ET. Compared to last year, I'd say the number of specators declines 50-60%. I talked to some of my buddies on Operations, and they told me MMP has laid off 50% of this staff over the past year. Tough times...
My son and I had a great time though and were able to meet up with a Rennlister from Portland (Josh) who stopped by my garage. Always great to see fellow GT3ers/Rennlister! I'm trying to convince the wife to join my for the next ALMS race Lime Rock in July. I grew up at that track, and hope to meet up with Rennlisters there as well...

It seemed like Long Beach attendance was about the same, but maybe more people have to travel to go to MMP in Utah?
On TV, it looked like Laguna Seca stands were completely emplty for the Rolex race this weekend.
Jim -- sorry to hear you got taken out early, hope the car's fine.
