If you want to know my feelings on the Aston Martin DBR9's whining about the rules, just look at my avatar!
I must agree that a race will always win out over a car show. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy going to the different shows.
I also agree with you on the whining of the DBR9's. I have always stated that when you build a race car, you know the rules and if you cannot be competitive in the class, then move to a different class, don't relay on the sectioning body to change the rules, such as weight breaks and smaller air restrictions on faster cars. If Chevrolet and Pratt & Miller can build the C6R's that are faster then the DBR9's, then Aston Martin need to do some more homework. You don't see RedBull in F1 get special concessions so they can run with the top three.
I understand why IMSA imposes these different restrictions, but I simply disagree with them.
I'll now get off my soap box.
