I'll be here! Next week is my favorite week of the year!

W000000t!

 

I'd like to attend that race some year soon. Did you hear that ALMS is considering ending the GT1 class? Corvette is moving to GT2 because they have no competition.

 

Yeah, I knew about Corvette. Haven't heard that GT2 rumor.

You need to go! I love it, It's what I look forward to every year.
