Default RCC Classic track pix please

Hello,

Any body got some pix of the Classic track day that they'd like to share with the rest of us?

Thanks!

Left my cameras in my tow rig all day long. Spent too much time watching the other cars between my run group.

Hehe, same here. I'm the guy with the blue C6 that went too wide on the last turn and almost hit the track official holding the pink corvette!!!

Man, I'd kill for a picture of that incident. I wanna see how big the dust cloud was from the outside

I watched that from the stands.

I also saw errance kick up the dirt exiting Turn 12. The dust cloud wasn't that big but it sure got the Starter's attention. He reached for the black flag after errance went by and he appeared to be talking on his radio, but by the time errance came back thru Turn 12 the Starter was off doing something else.

He said he doesn't scare easily, but he feared for his life and ducked and stayed ducked until the dust came down. He also said that he noticed the look of terror on my instructor's face

I never saw him. All I remember seeing is that tire wall flying at low altitude and high speed in my direction.

No still photos, but I have in-car video.

3rd session. It's 20+ minutes long.

I need to get my 4th session up to show all of you exactly what it means for someone to NOT lift and let someone pass. The in-car audio should be really special on that one!

Thanks! I was in one of the two intermediate groups. I felt pretty comfortable there. Not sure how I would feel in advanced, let alone HP.

I was instructing from the right seat. Quite a view from there looking at the wall and Sean taking a dive.
