Loved your car! You have to spend a season on the east coast...

Track was a hoot. I uploaded a video or two from my vantage point (alteregoracing at You Tube). Will post from the GoPro shortly.

Awesome pictures, just curious who runs those cars for the owners. You have to have a full set of mechanics on board and what about maintenance and if something blows. Id love to have that RS Spyder in my garage.

Are the LMP2 cars in these pictures eligible to run in the newly revised format next year in IMSA?
...and if so could they compete against the DP cars.

The Audi LMP and Porsche Spyder RS were in the same transport! So I guess the owner is one very lucky guy. There were a few crew, and they always had the body components off and working on them. That Audi went for a spin in the dirt/mud, they had to wash it off at the track near my pit...

I'm just glad the owner has them out running instead of sitting in some garage collecting dust.

A few more pictures of the Tricycle at COTA and someone else who wants to go back-

Passing an LMP1 car is badass! Doesn't compare, but here's me at Sonoma passing an Aston Martin cup car, and Ariel Atom and a new McLaren in the course of 2 laps. Fast cars w/ "meh" drivers; I'm not that good :-)
