    Here are a few photos from the "test day" today at Road America. The 458's and Aston Martin Lola sounded wonderful. The Aston had an engine change this morning so it missed part of the practice session. I always am amazed at what a nice track this is. It's so hilly and green it makes me think of Nurburging or Spa. ALMS is getting a little thin on P1 prototypes. The GT class is great again.

    great pics!

    I agree, GT is much better than Prototypes for most of the races; which is a shame, I love the closed-cockpit prototypes. especially that Aston :D

    I love the aston bodied proto's. BTW when is ALMS meshing with world endurance series? I thought it was this year?

    The Ferrari looked like a real handful but somehow carried the day! The rules seemed to favour BMW M3 cars though all three brands are very close on the wide open spaces of RA. The Corvettes seem to be harder on their tires than the competition.

    What happened to the second team car that Risi ran in the past?
