Very nice pics. Thanks.

I don't know if it's the angle of the picture, but shouldn't that side net be higher so that it catches the driver's head, not his shoulders?




BTW, I had the front half of my cage done by your shop a few years ago. Anyone from then still around?

yea it prob should, but honestly the net wouldn't do much no matter where it is. its required by SCCA, otherwise we wouldn't run one. the seat with the side head bolsters due to the job.

Bob the owner is still the same, and Mike, maybe, hes been with us for over three years. but everyone else is gone. we are a much younger crew, with more experience. we are in a new building, you should come check it out. its amazing compared to the old one.

Looks like an expensive day for Bimmerworld. You can see all three cars wrecked in that one shot.

You may have seen me around the RTR pits, I was only their a few times.

Most of the time I'm in the following places

Trailer of the #91, 6, or 60 DP cars

Timing Stand of #91, 6, or 60 watching them telemetrys!

or smoking around those general areas!

White button up EFI shirt brown spikey hair black dickies with some Jack Purcells for shoes! usually wearing big Prada or Chanel sunglasses

the car that daniels was wrecked I believe is the same car i used to car chief for at tri point

We ended up ok, not great but ok

the #60 Michael Shank Racing DP ended up 4th which is good keeps us up there in the points.

and the # 6 Michael shank racing DP car ended up 6th

all in all not too bad

the #91 Riley Matthews car ended up not finishing too well but we are still holding onto second in points trying to catch those ganassi boys.

the #77 Doran Racing DP ended up 5th which was good as well

and the Realtime Cars finished well, which is always nice

Nikon D40, most of the shots are with the 55-200mm lenses, and some with the standard lense that comes with the D40.
