Brilliant track? Huh? It's so narrow there's hardly room to pass, which makes for a very prosessional race. In addition, there is NO room for driver error as the entire track is lined with concrete barriers. Put it all together and the result a crap temporary circuit.But hey what do I know?

[IhackItouch]

have you seen it this year?

[WaxDaddy113]

The ZO6 get's down. I put 8,000 miles on my 2008 and the rear tires are shot!

Im glad to see theyre bringing Belle Isle back. For a long time, all we did was just go to belle isle and hang out when we were younger.

I used to go to the Detroit Grand Prix all the time. I stayed right down Woodward so i was right there.

so not that anybody cares but if you watch the footage and pay attention around 1:40-1:47 on the right hand side you will see some tents..actually there clearspan..But there are a butt load of them around the fountain thats on the island and in other randome spots. I helped put those up it took about a month and a half to set it all up. It was really cool watching that part of the island transform from day to day. On race day it looked nothing like when i first saw it.

I did this once in 1996 or 1997 at Belle Isle on a beefed up Gran Prix, with a Georgeous Lady driving...Awesome...Best Ride ever...

As a former Detroiter, I'm glad to see the Detroit Grand Prix return as a sports car series.

Congrats to you, shotgun. That ride in the Z06 had to be real treat.

I went and found it to be an incredibly good time. Paddock access made it even better! ;-)
