So I got up at the buttcrack of dawn on a Saturday . . .

The stillness before all the madness . . .

As coffees are poured, breakfast trays set up, the cars were taken out of their sleeping place in the pristine trailers -

Although it was just a practice/qualifying day, the action was nonetheless exciting. Bridgestone provides two sets of "red" tires for each car to use for the weekend - as they are a softer compound tire, they tend to yield higher speeds at the cost of wear. When the team/car uses them is up to their discretion.

Here are some more shots of the preparation and setting up of the cars -

The level of sophistication found in the details was astounding!

There were some neat GT-A/Trans-Am cars in the mix in their own races as well -

And on to the action!

And there was some drifting action as Formula D did an awesome demonstration -

Hope you liked them!

Excellent shots, thank for posting them!

I always marvel at the size of the sidewalls on F1 tires, especially when I see rubber band 1" sidewalls on all the street cars around here.....our roads are bad, I don't know how they do it......
