Thanks for the earlier link to the Jay Leno's Garage segment with Don. I shared the link with some Atlantans and they were amazed that they had never heard about Panoz, the Petit Le Mans, and Road Atlanta.

I've been attempting to tell them for many years but it seemed to either go over their heads or they went deaf when I mentioned racing even though it was endurance prototype racing.

Once amazed, I introduced the fact that Panoz had raced ( one of/the first ) hybrid race car at Le Mans.

I can see a lot of Sparky in the new livery and shape of the new 25th anniversary GTR1 being introduced.

Here's a photo of 'Sparky', the Q9 Panoz Hybrid, I shot during scrutineering for the first Petit Le Mans...
