------------------------------Road America------------------------------

As you have probably gathered already from the previous pages and pics of building my car I'm a road racing type guy. Drifting is cool and all but I'm not going to build a car to slide. Motorsport for me is road racing. And Road America is road racing at its best. The following pics are from Sunday August 20th. The GT speed series and Lemans cars were there. Both types of cars are super cool in my book. I'm a little more intrigued by the GT1 class because I know they more closely resemble regular car chassis'. I'm still very interested in the lemans cars though because they have such amazing technology in them. There are also some random pics of other stuff we saw during the day.

The Aston Martins are my favorite. They're such beautiful cars to begin with. Then add on top of that the extreme brute they have with that V12 and the amazing technology in the chassis and body.

The GT1 Bimmer. Definitely the smallest engined car in the class but man did that thing rev. Amazing chassis and brakes too.

The Panoz cars were also GT1. They were loud and deep as hell. Didn't really seem to rev too much thouh. Could definitely tell it was a Ford motor.

The Ferraris. What can I say? They're Ferrari's. Beatiful. I don't like the facia as much as the old Modena's but what can you do.

Broken parts seem to be commonplace.

The DHL Lemans series were loud as sh!t. They had two full spare chassis ready for action if needed.

The Lemans Audis dominated the race with their V12 twin turbo diesels.

Infiniti Lemans. I wasn't really watching them too much because I didn't realize they were infiniti till I looked at the pics.

Even the haulers were done up with polished diesels and huge turbos.

Great job on the VQ swap. I was on maxima.org when I spotted the weight on your sig and had to investigate. It's nice to see a race car built on a reasonable budget.

i also was wondering why you got another racing seat. why not just take the one off the maxima if you are parting it out anyway? and y did you sell the blower if you are going to run boost on this engine? btw, you should paint it all black or something... like the part gold part flat black looks like shit. but this is really the first 240 with this motor? ehh personally i woulda got a 300zx motor or something with a little more horsepower, but good luck.
