Gil de Ferran will cap his career with a salute to the man who helped it take off.

De Ferran will turn his final laps on Saturday in the ALMS season ender at Laguna Seca in a prototype wearing "milk"-white-colored livery that channels the revolutionary Chaparral race cars of the 1960s and 1970s. The man behind the Chaparral marque, Jim Hall, gave de Ferran his first big break in Indy cars.


Interesting stories today: ALMS=Class Act, Grand Am = Ass Act.

You've only got to spend 5 minutes on sebringfans.com to realize that, while many of them may be knowledgeable fans, this race is mostly a drinking binge with some noisy cars in the background.
The focus (on that site) on alcohol consumption is really kind of depressing. I'm kind of amazed (and disappointed) that track management doesn't do anything to try and go a bit more upmarket.
If I wanted to hang with drunken louts I'd go to a British premier league game.
