Default Wow, number of photographers around the R10 when it was in pit lane
Never seen so many flashes going off when the R10 came in for a driver change. Audi's definetly getting a ton of media coverage because of the R10.

Default There vs here
Tell me about it, I was planning on going this year but then couldn't.

Comparing the R8 using the launch control from pitlane to the R10, totally quiet. Don't even see any wheelspin from the R10 either.

I can't wait for the SLC ALMS race. Trying to volunteer to do corner work for it.

Default It's all about too much sulpher in Amer. diesel, clogs the particulate traps!!
The Shell diesel the R10 is running is a super clean blend, no sulhper!!!

Default Wondering what other ALMS races the R10 will be at
I don't think it's going to be at all unfortunately, Sebring was used a good shakedown test for the 24 hours.
