Yeah it's the most phyisical track on the calendar, 2008 was SEAT TDI domination :D.

I have had a fair few drivers try to kill me at Duffus :lol:.

Charles Bateman in Porches GB having brake failure into Duffus. (2008)

When his car came to rest it was staring me in the face and I got a face full of gravel/stones :ouch:. (But I did get on tv, :lol:, video was on YT but got removed..)

Then 2009 Matt Neal crashed into Collard infront of me at Clark curve T5. (2009)

In qualifing I had my camera out and was lucky enough to react quick enough to snap Neate plowing into the tyre wall right infront of me :scared:. (2010)

Cars are 12$ a class of cars. Tracks I haven't looked into yet.

Alright. So you buy a group of cars, not just single cars?

I use to go to Nascar races a lot when I was little with my Dad. Last last year, I finally got to go Road Atlanta to watch some motorcycle races. This year, I would like to go to Petit Le Mans if I can get a job and save up enough money for a ticket in time.

There's going to be an american racing at Knockhill, so it might be worth watching if I can find a stream online.

I know an American who won at Le Mans in the McLaren a few hours ago 👍 Great job man. I go to the Rolex 24 and the CTSCC race there too. It is a blast. I usually see 20+ hours of the race.

It's hard to sleep when there are Mazda RX-8s going by at 10,000+ rpms. Not to mention the Porsche flat 6.

Those mazda's have a unique sound! My dad hated them :P

The Porsche 911 991 flat 6 makes an epic sound going through the gears.
 
I'm not a big rotary fan, but watching The Daytona 24 this year, I was loving the sound of the RX-8 every time it was on the TV.

cnd, was it Bill Auberlen?

No shin :lol: I was talking about your victory earlier today :lol: The rotary was a great concept. Too bad it hasn't withstood the test of time any longer than it did.
 
Alright guys, as you probably don't know, someone is making another Grand Am Rolex Series.

Are we happy about it? No, but there isn't a whole lot we can do about it. I'm giving you all a heads up so you all don't go on that thread and cause a ruckus. I'm not going to kid myself and think none of you will go on there and have some "choice words" to say to him, but hopefully you can gather yourselves before the thread goes up.

P.S: if you couldn't already tell, I'm not making it...
 
Oh. I thought you meant in real life.:):D


News to me. Can you post a link to the thread?

I'm assuming the member in question had possibly asked for permission or something along the lines?

He gave me a heads up he was making it.
 
That's pretty nice. Not saying this is any competition (pun not intended) but I am interested to see how it looks.
