I rent a hauling van, throw a blow up mattress in the back and park in the grass parking area right outside the speedway by the turn 4 oval. It's close enough to the infield tunnel entrance.I got stiffed by the person I usually get my camping passes from, so I'm in emergency panic mode.

Nice! I got tickets for this year also
Went to the 12hr of Sebring for the first time last year. Probably one of the best races I've been to, so I'm certainly looking forward to the Rolex 24. And you're right; 12 hours at Sebring just wasn't long enough

Is the Roar being televised by any chance? Got my last free weekend without having to worry about school, and I need to get my racing fix.

I do the same, but use a minivan I get at the airport.
I camp in the T4 infield with a big group.

Sad to see Max the Ax go. I'm already a WTR fan but I'll be rooting even harder for them for his last race.
And wow I'm kinda digging this livery

All I got to say is that they better hope it runs better than it looks, that is the ugliest one yet.

The high F1 style nose certainly makes it hard to make the car look like a production car, but atleast the lines match up with the GT-R. Maybe if this was more of a factory effort and they had more time they could have come up with something more like the Mazda which looks like a different car than the Rileymatic chassis it is.

Agree. And they have the "V motion" grill piece on it too that's on all the Nissan's. I think if they changed the headlights a bit to look more GTR style as someone else said with the lightning bolt it would look pretty good. I think I'm the only one who doesn't think it looks bad
. Bad was the 2016 Audi R18, that thing was downright ugly. I loved the 2012 though.

The #52 behind it shows how much that lazy piece of carbon fiber ruins the lines of the Ligier. They could've at least been GM lazy and complemented the Ligier design with Nissan design traits but nope.

Idk I kind of like the "Nissan". Something about it imo makes it look cool.
