Ride: BMW 330Ci I know I saw those control arms and was like
"those twigs are the A arms?!" I felt bad for the Lotus, it was
a really cool car but blew its tranny 40 minutes in, and they
basically just finished working on it with an hour left in the
race. Plus the driver was cool, most other cars returned to the
paddock from their warm up laps surrounding by dudes in golf
carts honking away at people to move to the side, the lotus
driver just went for it himself and revved the **** out of the
car to scatter people lol. I thought those wheels were odd, but
I bet they are super light. I think they are some sort of Apex,
since the car had Apex stickers on it.  And that turn (called
the corkscrew) is awesome, it drops a total of 5 and a half
stories in a few hundred yards. Its a pretty exciting one to
watch, they drop waaaay down and then you can hear them all hit
the gas on the way out.
