I was able to attend the race! It was a blast and if you are a race fan it's a must see. Here some pics I snapped.

Nice that you got experience it live. It is a one of a kind atmosphere. Although, 1 time is definitely not enough to see all there is to see.

That's awesome! I"ve been 3x, all back in the 90's when I was going to Europe a lot.

It is an amazing event to attend.

that being said, the Corvettes and P-cars got screwed.

Interesting to note that the Stewards of the Meet have yet to rule on the Ferrari protest of Ford's breaking the 7% rule. Even if they rule in favor of Ferrari I seriously doubt that they will take the trophy away from Ford.

Any pics of those glowing brake rotors and exhausts in the wee hours of the night?

Nope, my cameras suck at night. i did notice how some cars would lite up those brakes like the soft glo of neon at your favorite strip club(LMP2). While others did not show any glowing. LMP1 cars, I believe its because they are using enough battery recovery in the brake zones to not get the glow. The GTE Pro Porsche didnt glow that much either where as the Ford, Corvette and Ferrari all had that nice Soul Glow.
