I don't remember seeing her last year, which either means that she didn't race, or she wasn't very good.

I'd like to see an organized challenge each year, set up at the Nurburgring, say maybe a whole weekend/or week in June to coincide with 24 hrs Lemans/Goodwood Festival of Speed. Have various categories set up for different entries. They could spend a few days or weeks whittling the challengers down before the final runs. That would be something!!

Oh, I doubt they'll ever do more official races there. Too dangerous. But yeah, that would be cool.

Has anyone gotten the Le Mans overview DVDs? I've got them on my netflix queue, but the latest ones are reviewed as not very good.

I know, they don't publicize the many deaths that occur on that track each year (I understood there have been a lot of m-bike fatalities). It's unknown how many fatalities there actually are, because they don't necessarily count deaths unless they happen at the scene (not on the way/or in hospital).

Yep, I remember watching that race and I was awestruck to say the least.

He walked away....

Apparently I should of been driving a car at those speeds rather than a bike at 1 km/h LOL

Probably because she races real cars, "Indy".

Sorry, couldn't resist. Please don't kill me.....

Sez she's in Indy Lights, bub... ;\)

Also, I watch several different forms of racing, Indycar's just the easiest one to see on basic cable.

I also watch ALMS (when possible), F1, and whatever rallycar stuff they're doing on ESPN. I've never been able to get into NASCAR.
