Obviously by the title, these are not new or even recent, but I thought you all would like them.
They are photos I took of the 2006 American LeMans Championship race at Laguna Seca. I went there in October with some friends as a roadtrip up to Monterey.
The bulk of these photos are from the race car work area, and staging area. Everyone who goes to the race can walk around looking at the cars and even talk to the team/drivers. It's a very open and friendly atmosphere.
During the weekend of the race, there are 5 races going on. The ALMS race, Formula Mazda, Porsche GT3 Cup race, Speed Touring car, and Speed GT. All these for a $50 ticket.
This is the folder with all the pics, there are.

Also I shot a small vid from the stands using a digital camera. Its kinda shaky, but it shows the difference between the audio you get on TV broadcasts, and the real thing.
