Playing in the wet at Infineon..

We went out with the L for a couple of laps shake down testing at Infineon today, weather didn't really want to cooperate but we had fun none the less, here's a few pic's I shot with my crappy point and shoot and some in-car.








































Here's the video

Very cool!

I love that L. It's got the "what the **** you lookin at?" attitude.

check the rulebook, but im pretty sure any race car racing in a nasa or scca sanctioned event, cannot have tinted windows.

That's cool, we don't race in NASA or SCCA or have any tinted windows so I guess we're fine

If your referring to the carbon rear side windows, they are legal in both NASA and SCCA. Front side windows are not legal in most NASA or SCCA events which we tested today for some data on the drag created by running windows down.

Mike,

The car looks pretty savage all black like that! Windows are the way to go, were those lexan or glass? Ever notice how all the LeMans cars have windows?

Ahh i see, your right carbon panels are allowed, just not tinted windows / lexan of any kind. =)

I see what you did there =)
