Hey, loved that 6 Hours at Spa-Francochamps, right?

 

Of course you did.

 

Wanna see more sportscar racing before Monday casts it's ugly shadow over our Motorsport-addict faces?

 

I hope you do.

 

Enjoyed that turnleft at 'dega?

 

Only if Harvick doesn't win I guess, yeah.

 

Want just a little bit of racing before you go to sleep and dream of how awesome you'd be if you were a driver in WTCC because those guys suck, right?

 

I know you do.

 

Remember that there's a monster of a track somewhere in California?

 

 

No. It's not that one.

 

It's goddamn Laguna f-ing Seca.

 

Damn straight dudes and dudettes. It's time for the Tudor United Sportscar Monterey Grand Prix or the-single-most-relevant-race-going-on-at-the-Seca-if-you-know-you-forgot-about-those-two-boringish-races-World-Superbikes-have-here-sometimes.

As the Full Moon goes into Scorpio on this night between the 3rd and 4th of May MMXV, let's have a last hurrah with a silly sportscar race on a much loved and lately much overlooked piece of blessed tarmac.

 

How about that Audi win, right?

S***'s getting heavy.

[JHSingo]

Anyone remember this?

 

[DrProzac]

Some good looking cars out there

[WhiteSGPlayer]

Autosport's Darling, Christina Nielsen, is in the lead of GTD

Uh, I completely forgot about her.

 

Gotta love this track, man.

[Andrew Hope]

There are some really good looking liveries in this race.

[OvDrone]

Too bad that the Skyactiv Mazda hit trouble.

 

That cheerylike red/pink/purple whatever is really sexy.

[Peat]

and some 'forceful' overtakes

[OvDrone]

Dem fashion golden glasses on Pierre Kaffer.

[JHSingo]

I'm pretty sure 99% of this race is being shown from onboard cameras...

[OvDrone]

The #11 looks so good through the bottom of the Corkscrew. Hope they win it in the PC class.

 

And I made up my mind. I'm rooting for the #90 in the championship even if their main sponsor is 'VisitFlorida.com'. Also Risi Competizione over at GTLM.

[Andrew Hope]

Not a bad last lap battle. I <3 Laguna

[OvDrone]

Those last three laps, what a finish. The #90, hell yeah.

 

Great end to another great Motorsport weekend. Finally I can go to sleep. Awesome, cheers.

Crap! If I'd known you guys had started a thread for this, I would've joined in!

 

Was a pretty good race, all told. Westy was insane through traffic on the last laps. Well-deserved victory.

[jonpollak]

How'd my darlin' Christina do?
Jp

[DN5]

Glad I've got the series on automatic record.

 

A nice way to spend the morning watching as live. An excellent last 5 minutes.

Given the troubles that car consistently has, I think "activ" is a misnomer.
