The R8's younger brother looks like it might be equally dominant at Le Mans. I was just in France for the race and the R10 was stunning. Can't wait to see what the future holds for that car.

Default "My other car is a diesel"

I dont know if you were watchig the race today but they had an onboard camera facing backwards with a bumpersticker saying "My other car is a diesel". During the autograph session that they had, the guy in front of me handed McNish the sticker. I guess they knew each other because he was really friendly with him and had some really nice hires photos that they also signed. McNish laughed and said he wasnt sure they could put it on the car but there it was right in full view of the camera.

I had them (Dindo and McNish) sign an Audi flag I had from an event a while back. Very friendly guys.

Also Mario Dominguez was driving one of the 360's and Marc Gene. It was really cool that they had this session, free access to the paddock and right before the race they let anyone who wanted to go onto the track as the cars lined up for the warm up lap.

Lime rock is a great place to watch a race. i was somewhat disappointed that they didnt have more vendors selling racing gear but otherwise everything was great.

Audi on the otherhand had a $300 deal where you can get food and AC and a nice bathroom from the house on the hill along with a private driver meet. I spoke to a guy in there (didnt have the tickets myself) and suggested they offer a cheaper deal where if nothing else they do an Audi Corral and give away free water and entry to the roof patio or something. Corvette, Porsche, BMW all had corrals.

Default cant remember who drives for Aston but...

the autograph session was mobbed because they had 6 of them holding umbrellas. Couldnt get more pictures, or rather I was too impatient.
They did their own autograph session but I missed it waiting in line for Audi
