Le Mans Test Day Notebook

Sports car racing, is my passion and I have been dedicated to it for well over two decades. A great quote from Steve McQueen in his 1971 movie, when he starred as Gulf Porsche driver Michael Delaney, comes to mind. "Racing is life. Anything that happens before or after, is just waiting." - Steve McQueen From the movie, "Le Mans" - 1971

Catching up
Lots of news and race reports, still to be covered. Yours truly will write race reports on the two races from Laguna Seca Raceway for the WeatherTech Championship, last month. The official test day for the 24 Hours of Le Mans is this weekend, and so is the WeatherTech race on the streets of Belle Isle Park in Detroit, Michigan. So, lots of sports car racing news, to catch up with, as well as race reports. Stay tuned, and I will make sense of everything and publish the race reports, when time becomes available to do so. However, in mid June, don't miss wall to wall coverage, of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The big one. The best sports car race of the year, is coming, soon.
