Here are a few photos from the Rolex on Saturday. I arrived at about 10:00 Saturday morning and stayed until almost midnight. It was really nice to watch the finish on TV and listen to the commentary instead of being out on the course and not knowing what is happening.

Chevy powered Oreca entering turn 5.

This isn't going to end well.

Nice shots! Can I play?
I was there all day Saturday in the infield as a fan. Garage passes are a must! Sunday came back early until the finish in the grandstands by turn 1.

I was shooting feature stuff, like fans and grid parade, for a newspaper. I love the cars and have been going to sports car races since 1963. Doing this allows me to keep up with what's happening in the sport.

I think the new grandstands are much better than the old.
