I was there too! I saw Doug. I had never met him before. Very freindly and racing crazed too. He slept in his car! Yes. The 914. Its not like he is a little guy, either. I couldn't believe it. But he doesn't have a center console....
Those Audis are too perfect.
Swoosh- nothing but net. They weren't loud enough to be race cars, imo. The Spyders sounded like Porsches though. A real scream in the revs. Al in all it was great though. I think ALMS is the best racing in America. They really go all out to make it a PARTY! The Porscheplatz was right across from the Bicardi Party zone. During the "pit walk" before the race I stood there next to (!) Roger Penske while he talked to the team about the start. I love the way you can watch the cars being repaired in the paddock. One Dyson Lola blew by me with smoke billowing out as it went from the track through the pits and straight to the paddock.
It was sorta like a NASCAR race too. The turn 10 area especially. It has a tradition of lots of really, uh, enthusiastic partying and voluntary displays of female anatomy.
I really hope that the rules advantages for diesel cars are eliminated. I think the Porsche is almost equivilent to the R-8 audis, but the R-10 is a like new rung on the ladder.
When I saw Doug's club sticker, I had to take a pic.
