2015 Petit Le Mans

Got a flyer in the mail this week from Road Atlanta. Guess it's about time to order the tickets.

Anyone else going?

No, I'll stay with friends not far from the track, will be working a corner again, just don't know yet which one (I've worked turn 4 in 2011, I was the guy in orange), lots of Sebring T10 and DFH folks between 3 and 4 then as well.

I reckon I'll go again.

Not sure how the flier got to BR quicker than Athens.

Speaking of which, PLM is the same day as Dawgs v Tide. Guess there'll be 2 people in the camp pulling for the Dawgs this year.

Coach, hope you can stop by as well.

My recollection is hazy too. Hence how JP mentioned it; not me

Coming up on 17. By that math, I missed the first 2. By other math, I missed 1/2 of another and then there was 2009.

Congrats in #2, I guess.

Hope you don't have to leave early!

Did the letter end with "and get off my lawn"?

I'm glad. You are a stand up guy when it comes to that thing. I just have memory lapses. So used to suppressing things.

I'm hopeful for an entry, but realistic that even a demo lap may not happen. I'd think it be beneficial for the series but unsure of and do my best to steer clear of ALL politics these days.

My ticket has just been purchased. Seems like the price keeps going up every year while the product I am purchasing....

http://www.roadatlanta.com/images/20...A-Schedule.pdf

No Tudor sessions again on Weds again. Outside of Conti Tires, i am kinda over the support races. Lambos are pretty cool, MX-5s can be entertaining, but the lites are just downright annoying now.

Whatever, I'm there again.

That is about normal for the support races. And since I will be on the road all day Wednesday so lack of Tudor doesn't bother me much.

I kinda miss having an open wheel support series and hoping for something a little different, i guess...enter Audi, i mean Lamborghini.

It's 35 mins away for me and there's no choice in a Thursday-on ticket.

Hi, this is me complaining.

True, it was fun to see the star Mazda guys or f2000 run on occasion. My favorite was the TDI cup, they came out early but it didn't matter since they made no noise.
