Can't really fault him too much: he drove a nice car to the track, he brought his food and beverages with him, he's a fan of ALMS.

I will be doing a SCCA National @ LR in the next two weeks .We will be using the "traditional" course.
What you saw on TV is what we are calling the "doctor/lawyer course, set up for those who paid Skippy $100,000 for memberships so they have less of a chance of hurting themselves on the uphill or west bend.
In all fairness the chicane on the uphill probably a good idea to keep the LMPI&II cars from getting airborne.
I guess which configuration being used is up to the sanctioning body.

... and then the Acura team asked me for some set-up advice, and let me take the LMP out for a few laps, and i flew my jet helicopter home and ate cake and ice cream while i drove around on my indoor gokart track.

Few paddock shots. No Grid Grrrrls on practice Friday.
Wait. That's because I had to go pick them out friday night on my private auditions session.



Imagine this. Cross Drilled rotor on a race car. That's soooo insane.




Setting up for corner balancing?




Sorry I got such a worried look on Pat Long.
Just wanted to get him in the shot before he walked away.




Go Dyson.
