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:
“Philosophy is written in this grand book—I mean the universe—
which stands continually open to our gaze, but it cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and interpret the characters in which it is written. It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles, and other geometrical figures, without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it.”
—Galileo Galilei (1564–1642)
“Utterly frozen is this youthful lady,
Even as the snow that lies within the shade;
For she is no more moved than is the stone
By the sweet season which makes warm the hills”
—Dante Alighieri (1265–1321)
