Day 1 Part 2

Another Saab team. One of them was their daily driver, which they cannibalized for parts, stripped, and left the chassis on the ground at the end of the day


This poor rx7 eventually totaled itself with a big crash.


Are those rust spots or hood vents?


Ooh, look, tail fins!


I think this one actually made it through the entire race


I think somebody forgot to tell this guy that we make left AND right turns.


I think that's a tercel?


What is this? I don't think I've seen it before. Some sort of Fiat? I didn't see it on the track, so I don't think it lasted very long.


I think someone stole Mom's station wagon and brought it to the track


Yet another beemer


Y know, I used to actually want a 5.0 when I was young and dumb. I'm glad I wised up. :)


This scooby wagon was crazy fast. It had it's exhaust system sticking out the rear floor boards out the back hatch. I've heard that last event it had a STI motor in there, and from how fast it was going around the track, I think it may still have kept it. But crazy driving probably kept it in the pits for long periods of time.


I think this mercedes diesel was running on soybean oil


I'm not so sure those tires are gonna work that well.


We seriousl need some cow catchers up front.


Vee Dub's were rare this event.


I loved the theme of this car. These guys really know how to dress up.


Wow, those are some serious fender guards. Just exactly what do you plan to do with them?



I think this integra was trying to camoflauge itself as the sky.


Some more of the seriously fast beemers


Oooh, a DSM! This was our first choice in cars, but sadly we could not find one in time. Unfortunately I hear that it was stuck in 3rd gear for most of day 1, the clutch died, they replaced it overnight, then they were stuck in 2nd for all of day 2. It was AWD too!


Grrr, this is the white maxima that gave me a big hit and knocked me off the road after leaving it plenty of room to pass me on the esses on the second day.


Call me crazy but I like the yellow





Everyone cheered when the hearst lost it's tire and it started bouncing down the track.





I think it's supposed to be a dinosaur.


Some more of the seriuosly fast CRX's





whoo-hoo, more DSM's. Sadly I believe this one was FWD.


The limoncello miata is back!


Representing detroit and the big irons.




This beheamouth was huge, it took forever to pass around it.


These are the cars you don't want to take on the outside. They'll more than likely just push right into you if you're not careful.


This little alfa was back, but it didn't last very long.


I hold a secret place in my heart for the old school RWD celicas. Sadly this one didn't have much power.
