ALMS @ Road Atlanta

[2001 GTS]

So who all from here was at the race Saturday.

I met BANDIT118TH on the way in and saw quite a few vipers in the Lotus Corral.

But I didn't take my viper down there b/c I was with the Ferrari Club.

I was there, but didn't bring my Viper either. I rode with a buddy who has a b/w GTS. We originally parked in the open corral next to Lotus but moved over to the Lotus corral later on Saturday. Last year, the VCA-GA had a corral and only 4-5 cars showed up so we let Lotus share the space with us. This year there was no VCA-GA corral, so Lotus repaid the favor and let us park with them. I think I counted 8 Vipers this weekend. 6 that I knew and 2 that I didn't (red Gen 2 RT, red Gen 3 SRT-C)

Did the B/W GTS have the Gen3 wheels....when I made it over there I was trying to find the owner

Yep that was us. When we were in the "open" parking, a silver SRT was parked by us part of the time Saturday. I never got to see the owner of it either

It might be a dumb question, but could F1 run at Road Atlanta? Since Indy is out next year, I wonder which remaining USA tracks could hold a Formula 1 event?

There are a number of U.S. tracks that could hold F1 races but the problem is the greedy F1. When Middle East countries are forking over 30million to Bernie it doesn't pay to have F1 stateside. F1 never cared about marketing in the States anyway and quite frankly there is much better racing stateside than anything F1 has had in over a decade. That is, unless you just like watching follow-the-leader.
