The Baltimore GP.
Wow, just wow. I just learned about the Dysen penalty, and that seems to be the turd cherry on the shit cake. I mean, WOW. I had been at the GP since 7:00, and I was looking forward to ALMS, but some jackass planer decided trying to get rid of the light rail tracks was too much work and had to put up those awful chicanes. I don’t know a single battle they would have made closer.
And that’s not even adding the fact my legs were shot from all the walking and standing I did. ALMS is too good for Baltimore. I honestly think the only reason they’re racing in Baltimore is because it gives them a bit of exposure (what with being in a major northeast city).
So yeah, I’m still a bit salty over the whole ordeal. But hey! IMSA was good to watch. Indycar and lights qualy was fun to watch. I got to see ALMS cars driven in anger (which is always great, especially the Vettes, THEY’RE SO LOUD AND I LOVE IT). I even got to talk to Tommy Kendall while walking to the ALMS starting grid. I didn’t know about his crash in WG, so asking if he recently injured himself was somewhat awkward. But yeah. Pretty. Cool. Guy. And no, I don’t have any pictures, so SR20.

I mean seriously...who actually thought putting barriers in the middle of the already narrow track was a good idea ? if you can't lay out a course without doing that , either you need a new area in the city to run on , or you need a new course designer .

I wouldn't even count those as barriers, they're obstacles.
