Yep, watching street courses is about as exciting as wayching paint dry.

But, you know what? My ass will still be sitting in front of the flat screen watching it. Best day in racing - Monaco, Indy, Charlotte - and a very annoyed wife. Thank God the pool is open to get her off my back for a little bit of it.

I know Monaco is this weekend, but I absolutely hate that circuit! -- EDGEMAN 05/21/2019 07:28AM

Agree about Monaco but COTA isn't the answer. I would much rather see -- 81_Hokie 05/21/2019 08:00AM

The fact that CoTA was constructed tells you how much it would cost -- typed by ben 05/21/2019 12:09PM

I blame the italian designer. -- 48zip 05/21/2019 09:46AM

Thought a German company did the design & construction? ** -- EDGEMAN 05/21/2019 1:55PM

I just read that, too. Perhaps I got the story wrong originally. -- 48zip 05/21/2019 2:00PM

It was red and green at the MotoGP earlier this year (see pic) -- 48zip 05/21/2019 12:31PM

It's red, white, and blue with stars for the USGP ** -- typed by ben 05/21/2019 2:28PM

Understood. I'm guessing it changes. The MotoGP was definitely red/green. -- 48zip 05/21/2019 2:50PM

Good work if you can get it! ** -- typed by ben 05/21/2019 4:43PM

Either would look ridiculous, imho ** -- 81_Hokie 05/21/2019 10:11AM

I like the idea. Keeps the main track isolated from run-off areas. ** -- 48zip 05/21/2019 10:50AM
