So I got to visit Honda Performance Development, makers of the 2nd best IndyCar engine. Unfortunately these are the only pics I'm able to share.

Fast forwarded through the F1 race. Thought it was funny that Versenna was mad about not being able to pass DK in a Toro Rosso.

You mean the only fotos you have? It's not like they let anyone with camera access...and when you do have a camera pass, you have a guide/steward pointing the direction of the camera for you.

Spencer Pumpelly (who's testing the NSX GT3 with Cunningham) was at COTA due to an IMSA obligation. Cunningham is focused on testing the NSX GT3 though he was in attendance at Sonoma. Kox took over the Sonoma rounds.

Damn car wouldn't start after sitting in the hot sun all day. I opened the doors and fiddled with the clutch interlock wires and waited 15-20 minutes on both Friday and Saturday before it started.
