What are the rules regarding spectators? I read they were non-spectator events. PCA-LPR is putting on an AX on Sunday, but I might be able to make it by on Sat. I've seen a few SCCA races and have been able to get in for free. Just have to sign a waiver?

Dropped by today while out in the Lotus.

Looked to be around 50 or 60 cars, with some really nice McLarens. Also some nice others as you can see:

The "914" isn't flared. Pretty car as well as the other teener.

All those Can Am cars ...... beautiful.

Thanks for that fun picture. I'm having fun chasing Hans. He is a great driver. Definitely worth the 50 hour round trip tow.

Stupid question, so forgive me, but why do you paint the drivers side bumper a wild color?

Also how long can you run on 4-5 gallons?

I liked the color. It's not a gt but I still like the color. It's only a 2.0/6 so 20 minutes is about 4.5 to 5galons At this altitude. Different back in Colorado at around 5700 feet

OK, so original GT's had the two color bumpers?

I'm not sure that they all did. Some did. They split the bumper color so they could identify between team cars when they ran more than one car with the same livery. Thus they would be able to tell if car 1 or car 2 was pitting my car was initially built as a C production car. But really is FIA now.
