dmoffitt, theblue and I headed down today for Dave to grab some stuff from cdoc. It just so happened that HSR was there today which is one of the series I’d _really_ like to run one of my BMW’s with. So it was definitely a plus as I have been wanting to attend a few of their events. We only arrived for Group 2-3, F2000, and Rolex Historic Enduro. Good enough though, the machinery is always nice to see and having the classic GTP and P1 cars running is a huge plus. I’ll have more pics but here are 3 for now. We’ll start with first generation Champion/Audi R8: ![http://www.mturck.com/WatkinsGlen/HSR/2008-06-15/DSCF4686.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/WatkinsGlen/HSR/2008-06-15/DSCF4686.jpg) R8 chasing down Rothmans 956 headed down into the toe ![http://www.mturck.com/WatkinsGlen/HSR/2008-06-15/DSCF4730.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/WatkinsGlen/HSR/2008-06-15/DSCF4730.jpg) Rothmans 956 blowing fire heading into the toe of the boot ![http://www.mturck.com/WatkinsGlen/HSR/2008-06-15/DSCF4821.jpg](http://www.mturck.com/WatkinsGlen/HSR/2008-06-15/DSCF4821.jpg) More to come! ---

I timed the R8s running consistently in the low **1:40s** area… truly INSANE… they were passing super cup cars like they were standing still… to put this race into perspective… you have a bunch of guys who paid 7 figures for some of the cars (these were all private owners) which cost something like $6000 an hour to run and they were out there racing full on against each other for no prize money… if that’s not living the dream, I don’t know what is.
