United Sports Car Championship (USCC)

Love that MSR logo in the background.....Michael Shank is our hometown team

 

I hope Mazda has better luck running their diesels in these prototypes. They had miserable reliability with the diesel sedans. They look nice in the new livery.

That R8 looks sweet, wonder how many other's are jumping from the good ship Porsche?

 

No....I'm not going to let it go....it sucks that they won't be at Mid-Ohio this year. Still following the series though.

 

A Shake-N-Bake tribute from Canadian white boy race driver Kyle Marcelli. If you ain't first you're last! Thanks Ricky Bobby for your inspiration.

At 23, Marcelli is one of the youngest drivers who will compete in the Tudor United Sports Car Championship this year. He's been driving in the American Le Mans Series since 2010, picking up three wins and 13 podiums.

That was great! Nice to see some drivers have a sense of humor..

Fox Sports sux!!!!


OK I feel better now.

 

They sure do, but it is better than nothing.

 

First race of the first year, should be interesting.

 

I noticed that although RSR is no longer a team, Sarah Cateano and Owen Trinkler are co-driving a Cruise America Honda Civic in the CTSSC.

Good luck to them.

 

Good folks hope they do well.

 

Next to Gracie Slick the only other person I would really, really, really like to

have a beer with.
