Default A few pictures from Friday/Saturday

I think if I'm going to make a habit of this, I need to plunk down some coin on a new camera. I was cursing my point and shoot all weekend. You kind of press the button, then keep panning and praying that you're still focused. Hopefully I'll be on the other side of the fence instead, though.

It was great to see everyone and thanks for the pics Seth! I didn't take any pics but will get some video up with me and C Capaldi in the TT. I think I ended up 4th in TTE.

Yeah, I never actually got around to taking pictures during the Spec race. Thanks to everyone who hung out and made the event what it was. Rachel says she's going to dress appropriately for a ride-along next time we head over, so we may have to pester someone for a ride.


John, how many TTE guys were out there? From what I've seen, its a pretty competitive field. I did notice that Bill Brees was absent, though. BTW, I tried to get a few pictures of you and Craig running together, but a lot of them turned out blurry. I have all of my pictures (37 in sum) from the weekend hosted, but these were the only non-blurred Focus content.

Here's a link to my photobucket album. http://s186.photobucket.com/albums/x241/guitarseth/

I would guess maybe 10? I don't know which cars were in my class so it's hard to tell on my laps. I believe the winning car ran a 1:45 and Chris (68) and I were 1:49.

Ahhh...I forgot he bumped up to TTD this year. I saw him AutoXing with his new class stickers earlier this year and was like WTF.

I'm uploading them to www.flickr.com as we speak. They are too big to post here.

Here is a few I shrank

Jimmy why are you not running the SVT wheels? Tires?

Two of the tires are shot and I cannot afford a set of 17" race tires yet.

That wasn't a typo. It was a blatant lie.
