Small traffic jam and I whip out the CB... We left my car at Daniels for the big week of work, Jon dropped me off in the city - but first stopped for gas and a Krispy Kreme Doughnut. I only ate it because Dr Biggly has been telling me about the mouth watering sin rings since I was marooned in North Carolina 3 months ago. Evil doings in the Lincoln tunnel, where I lost my Krispy Kreme doughnut virginity in the passenger seat of Jon's Z3. There's no Speedvision on my Time Warner cable, finally Jon found a great recap of the race on the Watkins Glen site.... The BMW Z3s won the day! "Villaconn International was awarded its second-straight victory in the Grand-Am Cup Sport Touring race at the Sports Car Grand Prix...Beau Brisson and Ken Dobson in the team's #34 BMW Z3 were awarded first place honors... #34 picked up its first win of the season at Grand-Am Cup's last race in Phoenix...BMW showed its dominance in the Sport Touring I Class at The Glen with Team Spartanburg's #72 BMW Z3 starting the race from the pole position and Villaconn's #34 BMW beside it... " GET DOWN! The BMW Z3s are kicking ass on the race track, both of our teams! Both of the Z3 teams- as well as the Porsches and Ferraris and all the other teams welcome and invite you to come out to the track and watch and learn and dream of driving in a championship, driving on a famous course... and it doesn't hurt a BIT that we're presently top dogs. Uh HUH! So much for all that talk on the message boards about which car is fastest, eh? Talk is cheap - but racing ain't cheap, and street racing is just a cop out for those who can't face the track. People like Mandy Reimart in her Make A Wish Ferrari and Senator Danny Marshall in his Jennifer Fund Porshe are already winners in the race that counts. The next race where you can see everyone run is at Virginia International Raceway TUESDAY-THURSDAY, June 25-27. You can see the race won at Watkins Glen on Speedvision on July 6, 5-7pm- someone please tape it for me? There also was some kind of webcast of the Watkins Glen event- which I missed. All Race information is on the Grand-Am Web site. Everyone - please go out to the track for the races if you can, bring your friends in Lexus's, and Hyundais, Boxsters and Ferraris and more, Z3ers should get in touch with the teams and see about having get togethers and make sure you wander down to the paddock areas and say a special hello to the BMW Z3 Teams, they will all be happy to see you- and you'll be glad you made the effort, I promise!
