    I'll be at RA for the ARRC. I'll be at Daytona a few times next year though.

    I still say IA Rolex 24.

    I need to post the pic of me standing in front of my door which overlooks the grandstand.

    It's a 5 min jog for me to get to Daytona Speedway.

    Went this morning but no pics as i just got the camera couple mins ago.

    I'll take some tomorrow.

    Highlights so far are seeing the Champion Audi R8 driven by Andy Wallace. He's really nice guy and talked to everyone.

    There are two. One is a "brandnew" car which is in Champion colors and the other is an ex works car.

    btw. There are 914s here i'd take over a 911.

    Not all are vintage, some run PCA,SCCA,NASA,etc following no traits of being a "vintage" race car. Actually vintage racing doesn't even have to be an "old" car.

    this is true. I used to work on this 99 Lola/Mugen Formula Nippon that ran a few HSR races a year.

    From my understanding, Vintage just means it isn't raced anymore at the top level.

    An Audi R10 would be considered.

    Yeah basically.

    You can also build a vintage race car it doesn't have to be a real ex race car.
