Ok, I don't know if there is anything out there about this but, here I go. If any of you have ever been to Laguna Seca before, you know how it is set-up. After returning from the track last weekend (ALMS, SPEED World Challenge, SPEC MIATA) I went to perform some testing to my DTM Benz for my up-and-coming 200Miles at Seca. After a few laps, I decided to take a really close look at the track. The restrooms at the top of the corkscrew are really there, and so is the souviner super store at turn 2. Hell, you can even see the enormous hill that I (stupidly) walked up in order to get to corkscrew. So, then I decided to take a look at the pits. After the Rainey curve, before the last two turns, I "parked" my car, switched to the outside view, and sat in awe as I looked upon the Formula One trailers! How did I know they were F1 Transporters? The Yellow one says "Benson and Hedges JORDAN," the blue one says, "Mild Seven"- it looks like it says Renault after that, and then there is a white trailer with half of the RED BULL loge showing. It doesn't say anything, but that is the Sauber-Petrones trailer. Take it for what it's worth, but PD/Sony shouldn't be able to get away with this. Or should they? :sly:

Yeah - this has been covered before, but don't feel bad about it.

If memory serves, you can also - by the magic of the breakout - visit the F1 lorries at Seattle too. They're parked on the left just as you hit the first "jump".
 
I attend any type of circut racing that I can go to. I am currently in the process of finding a Miata to build+run in some SPEC Miata races here in California/Nevada, so I guess a mazda event might be in my future.
