The word astrology gets thrown around for several different things, but what is it really? According to the dictionary, astrology could be the study of planets, sun, moon, and stars with a belief that they affect the course of a person’s life.

They record astronomy as an obsolete definition of astrology. That is really different for those of us that believed astrology was the research of astronomy.

Now astrology includes the sun signs that are far more commonly known as your horoscope. In actuality horoscopes are a reading per sun sign which is based on the position of the planets, sun, moon, or stars for that day, week, or month.

Scott Tucker with the exceptional Level 5 Motorsports teammates recently began the very last quarter of a racing year which has included numerous podium appearances, multiple car changes, incredible accomplishments but still room for improvement. Tucker, owner and driver for Level 5, has been a leader for the team in spite of the rookie status he maintained just months ago. His tight, balanced driving has earned him top honors in the American Le Mans Series as Rookie of the Year and Champion Driver in 2010. His races often end with stints on the podium, and his career has only just begun.

Rap artists today have their own little thing. Like one artist, whether griping about his state of low income or telling female friends to come in to his party, is phenomenal. He is also a heartbroken rap artist. Where he once saw hope when confronted with poverty and told individuals who it is always the luck of the draw, he reminisces his life of being more hard-core mobster taking whatever he wants.

The pinnacle of the 2011 American Le Mans series transpires on Oct. 1 with the 14th annual Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta. For Scott Tucker, driver and owner for Level 5 Motorsports, the race marks the beginning of his sixth year of professional racing. In 2006, he made his professional debut at Petit Le Mans, and after that, his career took off.

“There are not many Americans that get to race there, first and foremost, so I feel very privileged to be among that group,” he stated. “This year, we’re the only American prototype team there. We feel very fortunate we were selected to race there.”

In mid-March, after a modest but great showing at the Rolex 24 at Daytona a few weeks earlier, the Level 5 Motorsports team made its LMP2 debut. After winning its LMP class this year, the drivers nabbed the LMP2 distinction. As has become a bit of a tradition in the past year, the team was working feverishly to finish its entry car in time for the starting flag. In a matter of just days, the Lola Honda was finished and shipped to Florida for its race debut as well as the team’s class debut.

Motorsports competitions tend to be held in some of the most appealing locales: southern California, central Florida, just off the coast of France. So it would make sense that motorsports teams would set up base nearby-the climate would be consistent, the travel wouldn’t be far, and the heart of motorsports culture would be just next door. But Scott Tucker’s Level 5 Motorsports team is instead headquartered in Madison, Wisc., a location that works just as well for the team.

We have seen an abundance of publicity regarding the Scott Tucker-owned Level 5 Motorsports racing team’s mid-season decision to change cars. In spite of the risks the change brought of interrupting the explosive momentum the group has maintained since the season’s open, as well as the potential points lost by withdrawing from races while the car was being finished, the change has been nothing but positive. The marriage Level 5’s skillful and talented drivers; the integrity, innovation and reputation of Honda Performance Development; and the precision and technique of Wirth Research has benefited all three groups.

For the second year in a row, the American Le Mans Series Monterey at Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway on the Monterey Peninsula was a six-hour enduro race that led drivers around the circuit into the post-sundown darkness.

Previously, the race had been four hours, with the addition of two extra hours in 2010. For Scott Tucker and his Level 5 Motorsports racing team, the two extra hours allow for some breathing room. “We always try to run a clean race, but little mistakes can add up,” Tucker said last year. “Two extra hours can be a huge advantage even for experienced teams because of those unexpected things you tend to run into with endurance races.”
