Great shots Stephen. Bravo. We need more shots of members racing.

Stephen, Nice pics for sure...thanks for sharing. By the way, is your front valence looking the way it is because of a....... bump and run manuever??? Damn back markers anyway!!!

Absolutely not! No bump and runs from me! Read the caption on the photo... in the first turn, the car in front of me got caught on the outside behind a slower car. I dove to the inside to pass them both and he had the same idea at the same time. Crunch! I didn't hit him in the rear end... I made contact with his driver's door in the turn. We both spun and kept on racing. I had a good line on him for the pass, but he didn't see me and came down on me. No one's fault, no hard feelings on either side and not much damage done.

Almost identical to the (far worse) crash I had when Hurley Haywood did the same thing to me at Road Atlanta a few years ago. Except when he's Hurley Haywood and you're not, its assumed to be your fault. Plus, he had no excuse. He was slow on the restart and came down on me either because he was asleep at the wheel or just to prevent being passed. Then he spent the rest of the day badmouthing me in the pits. There went my respect for him. I guess that's an unrelated story, but there you go.

Great pics, what happened to the side glass? :cheeky:

This one is of my part time road registered racer, passed the Ferrari shortly afterwards by holding a tight power down line onto the main straight. Works nearly every time, harass their expensive car and then they try too hard
