Another Am and S7R fan.
Saw that a privateer AM (#69) had a big boo-boo.

Listening to radio LeMan and have live timing up on the PC with SPEED playong on the 61" big screen in the background.
What a set up for a great Father's Day weekend.

The start....

FYI . . the LM P1 cars will be going "back" to coupes by 2010. Long live GROUP C!! They will also have A/C. The private GT1 C5-R is running A/C this season.

Wow, what a crash by the LMP2 car # 37.
All that trash on the track and no safety car.

Stupid Nascrap on SPEED!
I can understand live covering the Truck race, but why do they
need to show tape delayed Busch qualifying while there's a real race to watch.

No more TV coverage until 8pm edt.
Thank goodiness there's RadioLeMans!

Trucks=Busch=NEXTEl=$$$$$

Pure and simple. Can't blame him, why not try your hand at another series where one can make some could $$$ and provide another challenge. He's already got Aussie V8 Championships, and he can always go back.

Personally, I'd like Ford to take some of their top drivers worldwide and make a full onslaught at Le Mans. And we know Marcus can turn left and right!

Well, the surround sound is nice....

...Picture is a little dull.

Glad there's Radio Le Mans, they're so much better than the SPEED guys trying to cover without a picture.

Also on the RadioLeMans site, there's a link to Danish TV which is streaming Video coverage, only I don't speak Danish.

Since SPEED can't get anything right anymore, lets just plan a trip over there next year and watch it live

Le Mans and Monaco are on my radar!!! Two races I have to attend before I pass. What's been the deal with SPEED TV?! I've been at the White Sox vs. Reds baseball game.
