Well, I must say the race was phenomenal. Peugeot brought over one of their 908 cars to battle the Audi R10. Mazda was their with their new closed cockpit car which had a bad ending on the practice session before the race on Saturday.

Any of you who are in this area need to show up for the race. It is a blast!

Anyways on with the pictures.

Highlight of the evening was heading over to Johnny O's house after the race to shoot the ****. He was pretty tired after the race and didn't want to go out after the race., so he invited the 5 of us over.

Shot is of his trophy from the 24 Hours of Le Mans from this year.

They run in different classes. The Peugeot is diesel as well. I've got some longer video clips. I may have a shorter one with the Peugeot in the pits.
