Vintage weekend, a great time as always. Saw a ton of cool cars, good races, etc. Didn't watch as much racing this year as I have in the past as we left early Sunday to go to a little party.
they took the various classes through the original track. on the front straight (where all the people are) they go kinda slow, but the rest of the track the pace cars let them haul ass (my dad and I snuck in one year lol)
back up at the current track, in the Bimmer this time. some pics from on the track
This was pretty fucking cool. 1969 (yes, they did come in 69!) 240z, vin # 00006. 1st z in north america, 1st z to race in north america, 1st 240z to win a race in north america, multi time scca champ. restored by bob sharp's company, I believe
with daN's thumb up of approval;
daN's ugly ass. oh wait, what's that behind him?
shelby daytona replicar, supposed to be VERY accurate. currently selling for $65k. I guess they got an original (i believe there were only 7 made?) and made all the molds and reproduced it. Carrol SHleby's sold a few years ago for 6.5 mil, and another one in rough ass shape sold for 4 mil about 3 years ago
I just thought the wood block was funny

Old school bugatti racecar. there were quite a few original racecars from this generation, this was just in the show though. refer to pic one for the racecars.
