When in Rome..... On that note, have you tried grits yet?

The predicted temps for those no longer in tune with the Farenheit scales are 23.9 C high, and 11.7 C low, and being clear it will be an absolutly gourgeous place to be for the race.

I am packing, will carry luggage to work and late awards ceremony, and may then try my luck to get a standby at the airport and hustle on up.

McNish seems to think pole will be in the high 1:09 range, though he thinks it will be one of the "lighter" cars. I'm not sure what to think of that, given the pace shown so far, unless everyone is playing sandbag games.

Grits - no, that's on the list to try!

Not at track yet but looks like a warm clear day so far (staying ten mins from track).

As we can see the grid, it seems that ALMS found a kind of equity between diesel and unleaded...
I'm afraid reliability will do the rest.

I don't think this has been mentioned elsewhere but Motors TV have announced some rather good news regarding their coverage of the Petit. They will be using the American Le Mans Series radio network commentary for the entire 10 hours.

Well done Motors TV. That is just awsome news. It's so good to know you listen to the fans.
