Guys, what a great day and thanks to Ron, Lou, Joey and everyone else involved in putting together "the day at the races" A special thanks needs to go to "Mr Windshield wiper" for giving up his own blade to allow the Black Swain team to run.

Thanks to all

John

Was at Lime Rock. Falken team job well done with a car right out of the crate. There were a number of very good laps run by the Falken FGT keeping the Lizard Porsche's at bay and the Ferraris. I know they were really testing and gathering data and I'm sure they will improve with each race.

Robertson had bad luck again. Just like Salt Lake. Ditto..damn Spyders.

My question was why are the FGT's so restricted via air restrictors??? The Panoz team is running same displacement but they get larger restrictors resulting in better breathing and more air = more power. What gives??? Do the Ferrari's have the same restrictors and other GT2 cars as the FGT????

In Europe the Matech team is running away from the field with the FGT. I'm sure, but not positive the European series FIA does not restrict the FGT as much as here but why????? Does someone know the answer????

I wish they would just take the leash off the FGT and let her run. I hate seeing the Ferraris pass the FGT :frown and know that in stock form the FGT takes the F430s lunch but would like to see the same in the LeMans series. Would like to put the aristocrats in their place with the FGT coming out on top.

Roberston and Faulken, keep up the good work.

Pockets told me if I drive the Red beast it turns back into a pumpkin. Is that true???? I know, I know....I asked if he's sure and he said "yup".
