Clipsal 500

Went to see some car racing with Scott on Saturday. Scott, being the sports editor for the Adelaide Hills newspaper, The Courier, grabbed the media passes, which gave us free entry and access to the paddock area (behind the pits). I've never been to an auto race before, and I have to say... it was pretty cool! I found out that the Clipsal 500 is the largest auto race in the world with 4 days of racing, concerts and more. Watched the main race that day, the V8 Supercars doing 250k (78 laps), then a mini-car race (small but FAST!), then a GT series race... with Porsches, Lambo's, Ferrari's and a Lotus.
