What an awesome weekend. Fried to a crisp on Friday and almost drowned at the race start on Saturday but I'm still buzzing about the whole Watkins Glen experience and vibe. I visited Silverstone for major sportscar events several times but it has absolutely NOTHING on the Glen - nothing at all. Such a shame the track only has a couple of events each year.

Sweet pics. I have a friggin' boatload of pics to sort through, but I definitely got some winners. For example, these shots straight off the camera with no cropping or editing:

Grand Am will be racing at IMS the same weekend as the Brickyard 400 in 2012.

Half the show was taken over by overflow of the F1 coverage so it was compromised a bit. Doesn't seem to get replayed either.

FUCK. Camaro #07 cleared the fence at turn 1 at Road America. Just went straight on like a stuck throttle. So scary, hope Gunter Schaldach is okay

MASSIVE crash in Turn 1! A car has hit the wall and gone over the fence!

Fuck, that was insane. Drivers are both fine!

I just tuned in, forgot this was on Saturday. How long were they under caution for the Camaro wreck?

Thanks to the GTs for a 10/10 race.

Ganassi won yawn.

Fantastic GT fight, glad the cameras managed to ignore the DPs for once to follow it all. Pleased to see the Corvette won but I really wanted that Sahlens Mazda to snatch the win - they're a fun bunch.
