Yea it's no launch pic. Beggars can't be choosers I guess. It's not like I submitted it to them for the calendar or anything. I didn't even know the pic existed until I saw the calendar.

A good burnout pic is always good to have though.

How cool! Great shot. That happened to me a few months back when I received my monthly Mid-America catalog only to discover that my son and I were on their cover during last Sept. fun-fest.
