It might be the last good one in a long time... With the ACO/FIA and it's new WEC and all the demands/rumors that are floating around.
I'll be there, in the corral. 2011 GS Yellow
My father and I have been going 10 straight years now ('02 and on...)

I will be there.
Johnny and Andy run WC about 1:00 PM Friday. Trans-Am race is about 5:00 PM Friday. Both are well worth the $$.

Mark and I have been kicking around the idea of fielding a back marker GT car. We could drive it from his house straight to grid.

Yeah quite a hit. The GT went from 100+ to 0 in just over 1 second. I can't believe how fast (or short of a distance) it stopped in. That happened fast.

Do Ferrari's have bad blind spots or something?
Seems to be the trend for them to take out the prototypes...
