yah..met the engineers this year... they are pretty excited about their prospects for the remainder of 2009 and the all new redesign in 2010.... given how successful they have been out the box, it should raise the bar in GT2 and make for some pretty good racing

Here's the original (well, twice compressed...) used Aperture to turn the brightness down a little bit as well as the black point



Another Lotus, tough to get motion blur with the cars moving so slow (for my learning curve anyhow )

Vettes won yesterday btw...


Go figure..an Acura won in P1...


Restructuring for 2010.... hopefully it will improve the racing in the prototype class because GT2 is the only racing that is interesting these days.
