You guys are amazing - so fun to watch!

Race is at 9AM tomorrow, looks like the track will be wet...

I have tons of pics of the 75 car and will post them when I'm back in town on Tuesday.

All the best tomorrow morning!!

OK Carlos and FP, what happened?

Live timing feed seems to have frozen at 11 laps?

Melanie Snow posted that she went off into a tire wall in the rain, but that her son, Madison, got 2nd and was the youngest podium racer in IMSA history!

Thanks Chris, I don't "tweet" so I didn't see that.

I'm sure the report from FP and Carlos will be interesting.

Melanie pulled off in my corner with body damage ...She hit the wall driver's right pretty hard coming
into corner one.She had spun earlier on and passed eight cars to move back into contention before the little mishap in one.

There's a picture of Carlos heading towards corner two,i believe he finished fourth ?
Didn't want to post pictures of Melanie's wounded car,she's a very nice lady as i had a chat with her while i did the intervention on her car at my corner

Their race was dry as compared to the F1 race which had a LONG rain delay ...

Cheers !
Phil

PS. Bonus picture for the boys
Can anybody guess which country that cute little butt represents ???

On a side note, the girls on Boulevard Saint-Laurent (and the even-more local scene on Saint-Denis) make the grid girls looks silly. I was surprised by the sheer quantity of good looking girls Crescent street? Forget about it. That's not where the real party was at.

Oh, and congrats on the GT3 finish. I was only able to drag my drunk self out of bed to catch the tail end of the Ferrari challenge race. Which, by the way, was incredibly entertaining and competitive.

I was there Sunday morning cheering you guys on. GT3 and Ferrari Challenge were more fun to watch.
