We have Friday completely free... I've done the parade and it was enjoyable, but I'd like to experience as much of the circuit and the people as I can this time around. Will definitely be a good time.

For what it's worth - and I'm planning on creating a thread for advice and such - but I'll be in Europe from the Nurburgring 24h through to Le Mans, doing a lot of marshaling among other things.

http://trackreviewers.com/user-review/2 ... mans-2010/ here's a review my friend wrote from when we went in 2010, it'd be great if anyone here could write up reviews for the site as well :)

I meant for my trip in general - but I've been to more than a few tracks so I'll get to writing up some content later one!

I know, I honestly can't get my head around what BMW are doing, they've just entered Endurance racing again and now appear to be leaving to focus on DTM :(

A few months back I already posted something like that. Same when they entered the endurance series, back then they just cancelled their WTCC program. Its the same now.

Wasn't the story that BMW didn't get a LM entry because they chose to drop out of WEC?

You also have to consider what's more marketable I guess. DTM may suck, but I bet the viewing figures are better than ILMC got.

There's absolutely no way at all that the DTM would get more TV viewers then Le Mans, but it's possible for some of the other ILMC races.

On the better side of the recent posters.

Would be better if the cars were actually drawn or at least shopped a bit to look like drawings.

More like for all of the ILMC (WEC) races (besides 24LM)...
