    Cool!!! I attended the first race downtown and attended the last ALMS race at Reliant Park, my ear's are still ringing and that was in '06! The screaming V12's of the Aston Martins were glorious.

    Sounds like a good opp for an FChat get together?

    LOL, "Good too see ya sis, do you have an extra key, bye" :D

    I'm rather curious if they will change the track layout. At the ALMS race there were alot of workers making sure people stayed where they were supposed to be, in their seats. Seating is nice but you pay double for a seat when in all reality, for us racers, a G/A ticket would be better especially for those who like too take pics and roam.

    You know I think I will actually try sending a few emails to the teams/drivers I like and ask about getting inside the garage/pit area, I'll push the law enforcement aspect. Ya never know.
