Colin Braun, DP Pole & ALMS Ride

[NismoZ]

Nice. The kid gets pole position in Mexico City and Krohn racing announces their entry in ALMS running with Risi Racing's Ferrari 430GTs. A 5 race deal including Sebring and LeMans. Good to hear.

He must be thrilled to finally be in something resembling a race car.

[Accipiter]

Actually, he might consider it another diversion since his stated goal is to get into NASCAR.

[chop456]

There was a lengthy article about him in Car & Driver a couple months back and I don't remember NASCAR being brought up. Then again I may have blocked it out.

[NismoZ]

Well, DPs are the Busch feeder series apparently so he's on his way!

[Sean O'Gorman]

Just hope he doesn't choke like Papis when he moves to stock cars. Great race today!

did max choke by driving too deep ot was he avoiding debris?

Once I saw the second big front lock up I figured too deep, course then he was pressing.

I missed the beginning, what happened to Pruett/Rojas?

Congrats Travis! :thumbup:

[G.]

Travis got some camera time today!:thumbup:

Good job on the win!

Rojas just didn't know how to handle the traffic, and lost something like a minute to the leaders by the time his stint was done. Without a caution, Pruett had no hope.

Thanks, everyone... it's been a long time coming for a very deserving team and a pair of very deserving drivers who know how to get it done. Here's to many more.

I thought the camera was supposed to put weight on. You still look like a too skinny geek. :rofl:

That's a Rolex Series race-winning too-skinny geek to you :p :laugh: :gomer:

Fun fact: The race went flag-to-flag without a caution.

[RacinM3]

Hahahah! Cool!

One question, though....why's there a caterpillar under your nose?? :rofl: ;)

[theunions]

I could've done without seeing you go into convulsions after Max's spin though. :rofl:

"Braun said he hopes to run a full truck or Busch schedule next year." (http://www.scenedaily.com/stories/2007/02/26/scene_daily685.html)
