Taken on top the bridge Friday (look no rain)!!!



The winner celebrating for the fans!


Beautiful!






Chevy was the only vendor giving out free Corvette T-shirts

Sweet!



Looks better in person though a lot of one color and nothing to break it up. I analyzed the damn thing for a long time, going between it and the X5 M. Acura ZDXhuh?? really makes me appreciate what BMW did here.


Did NOT want....analyzed this for awhile either..bulky, odd angles, lines, the rear is way to bland...it really left me cold

Thank you so much for sharing. What a spectular and diverse group of fast cars. So many to mention although I will say all the Porsches and the Dale Jr
Camaro did look extra sweet. You must have had a great time.

Nice shots of the Evora, I guess I will need to see one in person some day cuz it looks good (not great in pics) to me. I'm a big fan of the 1st gen NSX and although Honda was to build a front engine GT style 2nd Gen NSX, I have read at least once that on paper the Evora is somewhat a 'modern' or what the specs on a 2nd gen mid engine NSX would be if Honda were to ever build one. Any thoughts comments?

Thanks. I was going to do a write up on the NSX and Honda b/c they blew an opportunity by not just letting it live or continuing the same philosophy....

Yeah, it did rain just a little bit. Even the goats were melting if they weren't covered. 1Sicklex even hid under a polka dot covered girly umbrella for a bit before throwing in the towel. Good thing he did too, because the rest of us didn't have the good sense to come in out of the rain. There was so much standing water on the track even with full wet tires the P1 drivers were spinning in 10B like rookies.

Despite the rain, we had a great time and ended the race weekend with the Singapore GP on the home theater 120" screen. It just doesn't get much better...
