Ok, if Matech wins I will concede Blue is the fastest color if you will concede if they don't win (Heaven forbid) that they would have if they were red. :cheers

Wow. Amazing photos. So jealous (err, I mean genuinely happy) for you all to be out there enjoying it.

It looks like an insane experience!

When they win this race, can we all agree that BLUE is indeed the fastest color?

I'm just trying to help.

Chip: Stop flirting with the drivers! Just because she is prettier than you can can drive faster backwards then you can forwards is no reason to flirt and their skill does not rub off no matter how tight you hug them. Beside, they need to have their minds on the race. Stop it!!! :willy:biggrin

Waxer,

She felt bad about crashing the 61 Matech GT and I was trying to cheer her up. I don't know if it worked but it certainly cheered me up!! :biggrin :banana :thumbsup

This week has been more fun than a VW microbus full of high school cheerleaders. And the best is yet to come. It' going to be very hard to return to the real world next week.

This just flat -- unfair.... You guys are having way too much fun :lol

On a lighter note, I'm sure that you have already told Rahel not too be too hard on herself. Matech is probably one of the very few teams that can sell those 'crash' parts for a profit.

All to be crated, shipped to the U.S, and sold at R5 :biggrin

You should try it. It is quite fun, with the exception when POURING or below freezing at 3am..... Ask me how I know........

What an amazing trip you are all on. Keep up the fun, which I dont think will be an issue.....

Mo pics (night racing is the SHIZ!):

I was with you until the microbus comment. I have spent many days in the garages at races (Indy, Daytona, Vegas, Dega) While fun , none were that fun--though I would change HS it to "college". :wink

Im in Athens and unfortunateley will not be able to join my bretheren in LeMans as I need to fly home ASAP tomorrow morning for an urgent family issue.

You guys are awesome and I really wish I could have been there. I have been at many races and in pitts of Indy but this looks like somthing else. Enjoy and have a great time and may the force be with MATECH. Great pics btw. Keep them coming.

GodSpeed, :cheers

Names are perfect!

Atomic,

In addition to Ralphie's posted link to the page where all the names are shown, you can see exactly where they are on both sides of both cars by looking at the photo below. Our names are right above Dave's head in the photo below. The inside grey name plate is at the back of the door jam of the right side door near the roll bar.
