Yep, those new factory R8s are stunningly fast.  Even when compared to last
year's winning R8 (which is being run by Champion Audi in their privateer
effort).  While there was never really any competition, it was nice to see
those R8s win nevertheless.

Audi offered me a pair of complimentary tickets, passes to their hospitality
tent, and special parking permits.  What a nice way to enjoy the races...
Good food, video monitors, free programs, Audi Sport logo hat, and Audi
logo flags!

There was also great turnout at the Audi corral area.  A really enjoyable
weekend.
