    There's no grandstands and you can't go all around the track to look at the cars. But there is a lot of nice places where you have a nice view. The track is beautiful, also love the scenery (mountains)
    Its worth it.

    Like them better than the GT cars. The Brumos Porsche racing cars are incredible. (white car with some blue and red / blue car with Red Bull logos) When they upshift..my god it sounds like an F1 car. It goes 1st....bomm....2nd...bomm...
    Sounds meaner compared to the Pontiac, Lexus, BMW..etc

    I think that and Limerock have to be some of the more scenic tracks around. BTW John nice pics looking forward to meeting you during the GP.

    Nice pics!!!
    Sorry I missed you guys, I arrived pretty late (around 1:30 ...). Still got some nice shots, and I will second the orgasmic sound of the Brumos Porsches ... I just couldn't figure out what engine they used! Sounded like a V12, but was most likely a Cayenne V8 ... whatever it was, it sounded just beautiful!

    Had alot of fun watching those monsteruse Brumos Porsches laping the track! The sounds was mind blowing. LIke John explained earlier, with each upshift the engine sound just diminated all the other cars. Was a Great day, Seeing Stroll For the first time!

    This was my first time doing track shots, so bar with me! :)

    I went for the first couple hours. Stroll crashed in the first hour or so. I'll post pix of his crashed car once I get them resized.
