2008 D1 Grand Prix Season
The 2008 Gran Turismo D1 Grand Prix season will be the eighth season for the D1 Grand Prix series and the third for the D1 Street Legal spinoff series. The US series was proposed for a second season in November 2007, but in February 2008, due to commitments, the series was cancelled, leaving the 2007 as the only year the US series ever took place, despite being exhibition rounds. The series will begin March 29, 2008 for the D1SL and March 30 for D1GP at Ebisu Circuit. The series will end with a non-point scoring World All-Star event held at Irwindale Speedway on November 30, 2008 and will conclude altogether on December 14 as a D1SL point scoring round.
Famous quotes containing the words grand and/or season:
“Seeing to it that a youngster grows up believing not just in the here and now but also in the grand maybes of life guarantees that some small yet crucial part of him remains forever a child.”
—Anne Cassidy (20th century)
“The landscape was clothed in a mild and quiet light, in which the woods and fences checkered and partitioned it with new regularity, and rough and uneven fields stretched away with lawn-like smoothness to the horizon, and the clouds, finely distinct and picturesque, seemed a fit drapery to hang over fairyland. The world seemed decked for some holiday or prouder pageantry ... like a green lane into a country maze, at the season when fruit-trees are in blossom.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
