Round 4 at Lime Rock in Connecticut. Fantastic racing today. Don't want to spoil it in case anyone hasn't seen it yet, but there was some fantastic driving going on. Last race for the Audi R8. The R10 will appear at the next round.

Aston boys did a good job, though...

They are shorter races. However, sometimes that can be a good thing. It allows some of the teams that may have mechanical iconsistencies to have a better day at the tracks. It also, imho, allows for more competitive racing. The GT1 class in the Lime Rock race was contested, and decided, during the last 10 to 20 feet of track. Fantastic finish.

Actually, I think the Petit Lemans at Road Atlanta is going to be a good race this year (end of September). The track at Road Atlanta is very good for this sort of race. Besides that, it is a 10 hour race which will test endurance as well as pure driving ability.

There's an outside chance I might make it to that race

You will love it. Unfortunately, I can't go this year due to other commitments. However, if you need the location of any "fun places" to visit in Atlanta after the race, let me know.
