Traveled in to Austin today. Easy flight and then over to a doctors office for a COVID-19 test. Ferrari North America requires a negative test result within the last 8 days to enter the event. For those that have never taken the COVID-19 nasal swab test, all I can say it felt like someone rubbing sandpaper on the back of my eye.

Not really my idea of fun but we do what we have to do to make things happen.

Good luck to your team this week. :thumbup: Wish I could go out and support. But times are what they are. At least your back out there enjoying the race gas fumes.

I haven't done the test but my mom has a couple of times. She said it's definitely unpleasant, but nothing crazy.

Busy the first day of testing. Lots of Italian art. :thumbup:

Aahhhhhh..... ^_^

Couple more pics from the corral this week.

Thanks for pictures!

More pictures from today. Tomorrow is qualifying and race 1. Should have everything ready. Our schedule is crazy with arriving at the circuit around 11:00 AM and finish our last runs at 11:00 PM. Long days.

Your car pron is the best. Keep it coming OB. :thumbup:

So pissed OB, that I can’t be there!

Great day for us today for R3 Motorsports and our Ferrari 488 Challenge cars. We put one of them on the pole in qualifying and led flag to flag in race 1. We came in with a 1st and 2nd in the race tonight and let me tell you, the champagne is BACK. Ferrari really put on a celebration in victory lane. The catering staff were walking around with wine, champagne and deserts for everyone. There was even a guy rolling cigars and handing them out. They even had fireworks for the podium celebration. What a party! :thumbup:

Race 2 is tomorrow before flying home to repack for Road Atlanta next week with IMSA Audi TCR running in Michelin Pilot Challenge series. This week will be hard to beat. :driver:
