    cool pics....
     
  6. Great pics!! I know there was a bunch of HAMBers there that I didn't get to meet including you. There was just too much to do.

    Not sure what caused it but the intake broke on the white coupe. It had a clicking noise for a couple of laps before it broke. Besides the clicking it sounded good! Here's a pic of the damage.

    Great pictures. My camera died after a half hour, so I didn't get as many as i would have liked. Did get some good video of the 999, the mysterious Parkwood wagon, and some others running the track. I'm gonnatry to transfer and stream on the net this week if I get a chance.

    Ron Thorpe is a cool guy and patient too. When I did the little piece of striping on the trunk I must have wiped it off 2 times before I had what I wanted
