Well we went today to check these things out. I'm telling ya gang ya gotta go. These things are insane, and so dam loud. I mean I normally don't wear ear plugs at the track, which is probably why I'm half deaf, but I had to with these things.
Anyhow, we got there after lunch towards the end of the second round of the GT championships practise.

Well it was time to go. I'm absolutely going to put this event on my calender for next year. If practise was like this I want to see the full show.
On the way out I had to squeeze off these two pics. Talk about wide.
