How are the Penske Porsches doing?
I was right there for that. Should have photos of it going on in the background. I feel really bad for Magnus. Ran 3 races this year. Blew the motor early in the night at Daytona. Made it about 2/3 of the race in Watkins Glen before retiring with crash damage. Taken out on lap 1 at PLM.
I have to give some props to IMSA and Road Atlanta. The amount of fans was insane. With the exception of getting in and out of the track, the fan expereince wasn't impacted by the numbers at all. Not only did they sell out camping months ago, they sold out infield parking by Thursday. Pretty early Saturday all the free parking and onsite parking was full. People were parking miles away and walking in. They had to completely stop selling General Admission tickets. I didn't think it was possible for it to be at capacity. Crazy.
It might be a bigger party than sebring now.... I remember 2010-2011 when it really took off...and we were all like...uhhhh...where did all these people come from?
2018 was the first year I came. Each year has been a bigger crowd than the year before. This year was was WAY bigger than previous years.
