awesome. there are guys on my Z site that track ALL the time. I don't know how they afford it. Great action shot... did you tape up your front a bit or not? Get hit with debris?

well this is a brand new track so it was pretty clean. Audi club chicago was the first club to use it
One person went off which kicked up some dirt but it wasnt much and was cleaned right away.
Plus my front end is beat already with chips.

Im pretty sure you will need to be an audi club member, you can sign up on their national site. This event filled up QUICK, im sure the one in October will be filled even faster.
You guys were on the South track, we were on the North. The north was a little wet in the morning but dried up after awhile. But there were some puddles but not really in the way of the line.
I saw the F40 and heard about the modena but didnt see it. I saw one red cobra cooling off but thats it.

The chance of having something break on an almost 20-year old Ferrari F40? Yeah... it's not worth it, unless you're like Bill Gates or something.
