We were at Barber this past weekend. Full weekend of racing featuring Grand Am, Sports Cars, Star Mazda, Indy Lights and IndyCar. The grounds are STUNNING. They also have a museum that houses the world's largest collection of motorcycles and Lotus race cars.
Barber is the Augusta National of road courses. It should be on the Must Drive List for anyone that loves a challenging road course.
Here are pics from the weekend:

Ed didn't do well. He is so far behind on testing and set-up, plus he has always been a much better oval racer than road or street courses. He's engaged a coach to help him along.
