    I didn't see any posts on the Chicago thread for this annual event.

    ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    The BRIC starts this Thursday and runs until Sunday at ROAD AMERICA. A must do event for road racing fans. The FORD GT is the special focus this year. They are supposed to be setting up a large tent at the bottom of the paddock hill for the Ford GT's. This should be worth the trip alone! They will also be having the Historical F1 cars again this year.

    Go to the Road America website for a list of cars entered this year. Its a large list as usual. I saw a few cars worth drooling on like the Lotus 49 and Ferrari 312 and 312T2 that will run in the F1 race.

    So far the weather looks great for this weekend, with temps cooling into the 70's.

    They have a nice selection of F1 cars and a very nice FORD GT40 tent.
    I liked the 312T2, Lotus 49 and 77 best of the F1 cars.

    GT40's:
    They had J-4 and J-6 on display, the Sebring and Lemans 1967 winners. They also had a Gulf GT40 and the Lemans 1966 winner(#1046) and second placed car. One of each of the road versions and a MKIIB. Several original private team cars and a lightweight. A nice selection. Also many replica GT40's on display, some of them very well done.

    Ford helped put this together, so they have a great selection of the "new" FORD GT's on display.

    If you like Ford GT40's you should go!! You will love this display.

    Around 10 Can Am cars including several T70's and the McEagle are also at the event along with almost all the Scarabs ever made!!(no F1 car this year)

    Great shots. I fetched my favorite one. Your picture #20.

    I was hoping for a shot of Daryl in his dark silver GT40, but you didn't post one.

    Andreas, you have impeccable taste. THAT is what a Formula One car looks like in my estimation.

    As for me, this is me following the historic cars (off in the distance, just below the "D" in "Speedville") and following Kirby Schrader up the hill after turn 5.
