Speaking of art cars - I think we've reached a tipping point where more art cars are a good thing. When we only had one or two it was cool. Then we had 4 or 5 and it felt a bit much. Now we're getting half a grid of special liveries it's kind of awesome again. Maybe with Le Mans being at the end of the season from now on we can have a full season of regular liveries then half a grid of different stuff for the final race. Either way, I'm liking the current set. The Fords are cool, the new JCDC cars are cool, the JMW car is cool, the Rebellions are amazing. |

The shade of blue used in actual Gulf petrol stations is the darker blue not the traditional light blue of the race cars.
In other news, I have now read through Ayse's 2018 trip report. A delight as always. |

Good point. It does have an 'end of term' sort of feel, especially after the never ending super season.

The Dragonspeed blue is lovely in real life. Looks terrific - and that comes from someone who is now rather tired of Gulf colours.....

I will not be there this year (but I really should return one day), but my t-shirt has arrived.

It's by Blipshift. They do limited runs but if you subscribe they email you the designs so you can get them before they sell out.
https://www.blipshift.com/ Awesome There are so many good ones that I missed out on, but when they did a re-run of Dr Ullrichs tractors I was right on it. |

Weather looks mixed for the weekend. Risks of rain showers on the long range forecast.

I imagine I'd feel different if I was there
Wouldn't mind a shower or two during the race. Run up dry. Which is the opposite of what is forecast currently. |

Hard to be enthusiastic for non-sun when you're out in it, but yes, it does add to the excitement. As long as it's while I'm under cover!!

On track action starts in a short while and I am excited! I also won't be able to follow along as I'll be on a boat in the middle of the swamp. Anyhow, I look forward to reading this thread to see what I missed!

It's felt like that the last couple days in Atlanta, had to drive around 2' of standing water multiple times this week. But thankfully RLM streams fine on my phone in this swamp

We do!
Track is declared wet. There isn't standing warer, but it is damp. Lots of cars straight onto track including Rebellions, SMP and Toyota. |

Red Flag. #99 off the road at MP15.
Edit: Not an Aston. Krohn Dempsey Porsche. |

It wouldn't be Le Mans without a Tracey Krohn crash.
