I have Coffee- Cheese, a loaf of bread, some beer in the fridge, and went shopping last night- the only thing i don't have are 2 teles to let my girlfriend watch her shows! ha ha.
popcorn is at hand and ice cream in the fridge (JAVA chip- coffee blended vanilla with chocolate chunks- th best for an all nighter) Ganassi must be a favorite. Racer's group ad flying lizard should scrap the whole way in GT. we'll see who hold's it for 24 hours |

The Red Bull Ferrari was fastest in GT in happy hour with a 1:54.981. This entry is my personal favourite, plus Montermini is one of my favourite drivers so i'll be cheering for them.

So we will have a hot race in GT !
In GS the #58 Fabcar-Porsche with Donohue, Law, Maassen and Luhr is my favourite car. |

We have only a two minutes long ping with Daytona. This is correct.

Okay the Crawford is the best looking DP- very very nice work with the given rules, it knock the multimatic,doran off the top and the fabcar -which have grown on me, they are more reminiscent of old school protos.
great paint job with the Citgo sponsor ship the red and blue stripes off the back (is that right or is it some other sponsor) |
