I'm watching prequalifying on speed channel right now, and all the sudden Jim Downing popped on the screen talking (i'm like wooooooooooo).



Check him out tomorrow for the 6 hours of petit le mans.



He is racing a 4 rotor 675 car. #64. The car is red with a yellow wing.



Rotary love woooooooooooooooooooooooo!!

I thought he invented it. Then who did? I invented the "peripheral bridge," but I never finished it.
