Wow Diego, you got consecutive action shots of each car! I wasn't expecting anything that good. AND you filmed our cars from ABOVE (which always makes them look sleeker) and as they crossed the LRP logo on the front straight.

That was enough to make my day, right there!

Excellent work. Thank you!

Frank T

Wow Diego these shots are amazing.

Can I repost a few to social media sites and if so, do you have a photography page so I can give proper credit to you?

Who talked with him?[/quote]

Frank
We happened to be around when he was wandering thru. Just some kid in a driving suit taking a look at lil red. It was Sam's suit! He's running spec Miatas right now. Gave him the last CTZCC spotter card I had. One of the many special moments of that amazing day.

Great event! To all the club officers, well done. Big thanks to Bob Sharp, Lime Rock Park and Diego. It was so great to see Robin Foote and to reunite all 3 of Robin and Colin Foote's 240Z's together in one wonderful place.

Below, Z in the Conga.

:lol: Nice shooting, Scotty ~ thank you!

Big Al and I have diced on a couple of racetracks. His L-28 always beats my L-24, so I usually pull out of the way and give him the better line. I'm the better driver ( :lol: ) so I start out in the lead, but his car is faster. I love the way Lil' Red sounds at high RPM anyway, so being overtaken at speed has an intrinsic reward. :mrgreen:

Here, we were shooting videos of each other thru the Left Hander and I came out with the high line into turn 3. We spent a lot of time side-by-side. You'll notice that the other cars stay well back from us, because they can't figure out what we're doing.
Neither can we. 8)
