Went to Summit from Friday to Sunday to crew for the Jefferson 500, an annual vintage race. FYI - The 944 guys are awesome, definately worth a look if you're looking to go racing.

Porsche 908, worth $1.5mil


I guess you don't worry about brake cooling when you don't need to use them?


Beef, it's what's for lunch, dinner, and then breakfast the next day


2003 and 2004 models...


Nice specs...


The car that goes with the specs (worth $1mil)...

Unfortunately it hit oil in 4 and is now a ball of expensive metal

This Lotus looked oh so damn good


Lola Indy Light Cars


This was their pit vehicle


Shiny aluminum bodies own!




:Cream: Alfa


Some Loti


I really love this thing


Regardless what you drive, if you don't have a pass you can't park in the paddock


Track out at 3 had lots of dandelions


Dunno what this is, but it's sexy!


Everyone say a prayer for this car

 

Thanks for the pictures ... poor GTO in the weeds!

 

Hey, that GTO looks a lot like my 240Z....

 

Nice!

 

When cars that were new when you started racing are eligible for vintage racing (a al Shrike S2000?) does that mean you are old?

K

 

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing.

Say it isn't so!!! I finally did some googling on the GTO and I guess you're right

 

That makes me sad.

I should know , we just restored one a bit ago.

 

Oh yeah, Shenandoah is nowhere near being completed. Half of it is still unpaved, and the carousel continues to boggle me.

edit: Said Jefferson, meant Shenandoah.

They're not that expensive, you know. You'll find them for sale sometimes quite cheaply: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...&rd=1.

Most people consider the Europa less than a Sterling success for Lotus, though, even though it was one of their most popular models ever. I remember when they'd reign in some autocrosses, but the owners seemed to have the same attitude as the Porsche 914 drivers. In other words, they were a little defensive about their cars and sometimes felt they had something to prove. LOL....

 

Nice pictures...makes me a little upset that I didn't drive up there for at least a little bit this weekend.

I didn't keep myself informed...what can I say?

 

Wow, some great stuff!!

 

For those who care:


In red is what I recall being paved. As you can see, there is a concrete wall on the apex of one of the turns on this ~1 mile configuration.
