Great Race. Lime Rock was Jammed. I drove up in P 4/5 C and had a great day with my friends at Wayne Taylor Racing. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Attentending in your very own endurance competitioncar. I am trying to think of something more cool but can't come up with anything.
congrats to Jordan Taylor/ Max Angelelli for the DP championship in the Corvette and to Alessandro Balzan for the GT championship in the Ferrari
Grand Am at Lime Rock... General admission weekend ticket: $50.00 Fuel for the Type R and fuel for myself: $100.00 The chance to see the car of the event in all its carbon fiber glory: Priceless... Thanks again for bringing her out for the day...made my weekend.
It speaks volumes about a racing series when the only car anyone is talking about was driven up by it's owner and sat on display in the paddock while the racing was going on. For Mr. Edmundson's quotes "We don't care about 'traditional sports car fans'" and "We want to make the cars irrelevant". They succeeded. So long GrandAM. BHW
It was great racing and I was glad my friends at Wayne Taylor Racing did so well. Angelelli, Taylor storm Lime Rock to wrap up the Grand-Am Rolex Series - Racer.com Very nice nice size crowd and the Pits are very Fan Friendly. Next year with the merge with ALMS it should be even better and there are a lot of teams and manufactures who will be there. Really looking forward to the 24 Hours of Daytona.
JG: So, P4/5 is street legal? Hope you're right about the merge. Not sure about the prototypes but it sure should spice things up in the GT ranks. I may even make the trip to Daytonner next year. BHW
Both Ferrari P 4/5 by Pininfarina and P 4/5 C are. They both are fully emissions compliant and have all required DOT Equipment.
HERE HERE.....sad how Nascar views sports car racing huh? LMP1's are gone and LMP2 and DP will compete against each other...Looks like the GT field will be the class to watch....Now just get rid of those trashy tube framed Camaro's and Corvettes. If GM and the other US manufacturers cannot build a car to compete utilizing it's uni-body then go back to Nascar
that's my big concern about USCR, or TUSCC, or whatever it's called now.... NASCAR, and Grand-AM, have been so pro-Chevrolet for so long I wonder how fair of a shake everyone else will really get; and I doubt other manufacturers will tolerate that for long.
