This may have already been mentioned, but the language that includes the group being branded as a Cartel, could bring the European Union's regulating bodies into the offices of the upper echelon of the sport.

Grade 1 tracks yes, but also the logistical challenge of Road Atlanta's and Sebring's lack of "proper" garage facilities. For a series run out of containers, garages are an evil necessity which is why Laguna, Indy and now COTA are possibilities for globe trotting series (WEC, WTCC, and Moto GP)

Refer to the American round of the WEC where the WEC is the headline event with Tudor running in support.

I remember seeing this for the first time at Sebring from the liftgate of our semi. The first thing I noticed is that it looked like a current Formula 1 car with fenders. Sculpted sidepods leading to a tight Coke Bottle-esque rear end.

I believe this is the car that was campaigned by Risi in the ALMS GT1 class. It was repainted when it was reconditioned. I guess the owner made it into a street car after the car became ineligible for racing anywhere.

I'm sure if you paid the salaries of all their mechanics, the Audi dealer would service your car a bit faster.

DW seems to come off as an idiot more times than not. The height of his stupid babbling had to be when Speed sent him with Larry Mac to commentate the Bathurst 1000 because seemingly the Americans would never understand people speaking in a dialect derived from the British. Er, that's what we do. I think DW is more…

3.) Abandon vehicle

It's going to be cool. If it's what we had a few months ago, which I'm sure it is, you'll be happy when you drive it.

Seconded. A fantastic book.

Fly private. That way you can control who is on the plane with you.

So sad to lose 2 great, young drivers this year. Allan Simonsen and now Sean Edwards.

I have to disagree. I have had to use my racing skills more often than not to "get down the highway in one piece."

They haven't made an IS300 Sport-Cross in several years. Actually, not since the 1st generation. They're on the 3rd gen.

Why would the police become involved? It's stupid and callous at best, but nothing illegal per se.

I love that they were so offended that they rewound the DVR to make sure they heard it enough to be offended.

Methinks stabbing someone is one of the smaller crimes committed by those frequenting paddocks across the globe. If they were friends, I'm sure this wasn't a total shock.

That's a hell of a story. You should create your own blog post about it. Really crazy and definitely interesting.

Generally, yes.
