I never said that it was at the same time. I was just replying back to what smog was talking about.

Well things went good and bad for the guys we were cheering, Lamberts Stasis Audi overreved on the uphill portion and the motor let go after a very promising start. The Maki Stasis Audi funished a top10 (10th) and the Prall BMW clawed up 10 spots to finish 13th All in all a very fun day and we learned a lot about what these guys need and were. The drivers were very complementary on the added edge of newfound power and It was a blast working with them and their crews

So I watched and I had no clue as to which car I was looking for. Any Vishnu stickers on the cars were too small to be picked up by the cameras. I saw plenty of Turner Motorsports car's, would have been much better if there was a car with a big
ol VISHNU on the side! Hint hint..

oh.. and the flip at the beginning of the race was a sight

IC lloks as if you watched the race from yesterday were the car flipped IN THE GRID!!! never seen that before. The stickers were on the sideview mirroes and rear of the cars. I saw them quite a few times on the simulcast but I knew what I was looking for

ok, I've got a question. The WC was run at a different time than the ALMS at infineon correct? Where can I go to see some information on the race? (Infineonraceway.com doesn't mention anything but the ALMS ran on sunday)

I thought I saw you out there... wasn't sure if it was you though. Good to see a local shop tuning race cars.

It was a great race weekend (a little hot, but not too bad). I love the ALMS and World Challenge series. Always a fun time.

I'll post some pics when I get a chance.

that carrera GT gave me a boner all day.. Oh wait no I think it was due to the Carrera GT

The Lambo racer and the S7s rocked hard too nothing better than seeing those cars in their element instead of with a thick coat of wax and no brake dust

Awesome race. World Challenge was the reason I went there. I saw Shiv and the gang standing by the grandstand so I guess a quick hello don't hurt. Remember me shiv? LoL!!

Here are some pix from throughout the day. Enjoy!

Nice seeing you there too! BTW, one of the Stasis Audis (the one that is still intact) is coming by tonight for final tuning on the way to Portland for this weekend's race. I wonder how they'll get their rig in our parking lot
