This was the 13th annual petit le mans held at Road Atlanta. It's a 10 hour or 1000 mile race, whatever comes first. This year there were a bunch of cars represented from Audi TDI race cars, to Ferrari F430's and from Corvette C6R's to Hybrid Porsches. I've shot up at the BMW performance center before and it was always a challenge. The only difference here is that the cars are pushing 200mph! Check out some of the action!

I can't believe how close the cars race to each other while pushing 150mph!
Just a flesh wound!
