Dear Roger Penske: Thanks for buying Indycar. I want to see one but there’s no race in the Northeast. Bring back Indycar to Watkins Glen.
Mazda won the 2021 Sahlen’s Six Hours of the Glen with canny strategy. A short pit stop during a late yellow gave them the lead to the flag.
The 2021 Lime Rock Trans-Am was a reunion of track, fans and cars. It was good being with fans at one of the most beautiful tracks in America.
I can hear it now. In the battle of F1 versus Indycar, obviously F1 is better. Or is it all boring smoke, mirrors and bad TV announcing?
Like Mark Donohue’s Porsche 917-30 crushed the 1973 Watkins Glen Can-Am, Mazda crushed everyone in the 2019 IMSA Sahlen’s 6 Hours of The Glen.
Chris Dyson took pole position and dominated the 2019 Lime Rock Trans-Am for a home track win despite a racing injury suffered just days earlier.
I’ve been to the Watkins Glen race circuit many times, in all kinds of weather. Searing hot to serious cold and drenching rain. I survived the Bog. I love the place. Here then some notes and a few photos from the Sahlen’s Six Hours of the Glen:
The recent conviction of Scott Tucker on numerous federal charges of fraud is not surprising. Auto racing at any level is a great way to blow through copious amounts of money. The old expression holds true: How fast do you want to go? How much money do you have? The desire to go very fast is what drives criminals and auto racing to occasionally get together.
The 2018 IMSA Weathertech Championship will go down as one of the best seasons since the classic GTP era.
