cool! The audi's, vw, and z4 coupes look great, wish there were some racing on this side of the pond. Did the hybrid Porsche turn many trouble free laps? if it's a wet race maybe the awd system will prove to be an advantage..

Nice. Saw you guys came in 14th overall! Who turned the 8:29.7? How was the Ferrari?

Dom did the 29 in the end of the race.. We all drove and kep it clean to make sure we would qualy for the 24 hour race...

Then Dom got back in at the end and laid down a pretty good lap...


The Ferrari is pretty awesome.. I only did 1 lap in it before the actual race started.. and 7 laps in the race.. so i still have alot to learn about it...

The Hankook tires were great too.. Expect a good showing for the 24 hour race!...

The VLN is a very SERIOUS series.. With Toyota, Porsche, BMW, Audi Factory efforts.. and over 170 cars in the race...

It was a Hell of a weekend for me.. The best yet i think.. I took the rental on the track Sunday and got some more laps in.. The North Loop is a very special place... nothing compares...













A poor little brand new GT3 RS even got the wrath of the focus on one lap....




I took about 500 pics.. and will try to post up a bunch at some point...
