Rolex 24 Hour of Daytona

Congratulations to Porsche North America on their 40th Class win at Daytona.

 

Florida Op. Jamie checks in.

I was in NC around Porsche's and he responded by being in FL around Ferrari's.  A buddy of his is an instructional driver for the Super Car rides that was held at Moroso in West Palm.

Bet it was fun!

The 2014 Le Mans should be really interesting.

Porsche is returning to the LMP1 Class that Audi has all but dominated since Porsche left.

2013 Lemans

Porsche returned to the GT class in a big way! Their successful return would be over shadowed by the death of Aston Martin driver Allen Simonsen. Who crashed 20 minutes into the race and died shortly after of his injuries.

Simonsen was 33 and this was his 7th time at Le Mans racing.Remember that life is more than work, bills, and bullshit.

Live it the best you can.

I know a few guys who will want to see this!

I've seen a lot of car haulers.

But this has to be one of the slickest set ups I have laid eyes on. Even the simple outline graphics look bad ass.

Rainy day viewing.

Like the movie "Faster" only with four wheels. "Truth in 24" 1 and 2 follow Team Audi as they attack the 24 Hours of Le mans endurance race.

Definitely worth watching!!

Texas Moto GP

Grease Monkey Mike and Buster made the journey to see the top riders in the world compete this weekend.

 Looks like the weather was perfect.

They made some time to see this guy while out in TX.

Bacon says" Hay!"

Hope to see you soon brother.

An American Legend turns 60

The original idea was first conceived by Harley Earl and was put into production in 1953 but it wasn't until the V8 small block and Zora Duntov that the Corvette really took off. Considered by many as Americas Premier Sports Car, the Corvette turns 60 this year.

 With wins at Le Mans, Sebring, Laguna Seca, and many more over the years, the Corvette has earned it's spot among other great cars of the world.

 With the likes of Dick Thompson, Don Yenko, Mickey Thompson, Smokey Yunick, and Roger Penske driving and tuning the cars, the Corvette was hard to beat in the 60's at any race track.

 In the 70's even James Garner had a Corvette race team.

 The body style of the 68' thru 82' Corvette is unmistakable.

 

Now in its seventh generation the Corvette shows no signs of slowing down.

With a win at the 61st annual 12 hours at Sebring its sure off to a good year.

Happy Birthday Corvette.
