Last weekend I had the priveldge to be a part of the Long Beach Grand Prix, stationed at turn-1. I was drivers right response for the ALMS race on Saturday and the last Champ Car race on Sunday. I was right there when Paul Tracy lost his rear tire and slid into the run-off zone and Will Power did his victory donuts. I also got to yellow flag for the World Challenge race. Turn 1's magnet had an affinitey for back-marker Porsches, and even drew one to the inside. If you like you can read about the race here:

Jeeez, you nearly had to respond to an incident when Will was doing those donuts! It looked pretty close to a car on a cool down lap!

I remember watching from turn 1 last year, on the first lap of the World Challenenge race, that same turn 1 magnet spun one of the front runners and created a parking lot at turn 1.

Hey Jake,
Inches litterally before Will and the other guy stopped :o

I've got orange carbon from the Sports Challet Porsche, collected as a momento of action in my corner.
