Wow, the photog must have been lying on the ground to get that angle! Great pic! That yellow really pops in the sunlight.

Also see a Challenger trying to horn in on your pic. I had that problem with a Mustang sniffing my butt for a ways too.

I ran the Dragon earlier this month and had a good time.

One shot is from Killboy and one from 129Slayer.

That is actually my Aunt & Uncle's Bumble Bee Camaro. I mounted my GoPro on their hood to get some chase car footage. They wouldnt keep up with me on the dragon so the chase car footage is a "low speed" pass.

I believe this was a 129slayer pic. He actually sets up on a curve that has a steep drop off. He just stands to where he can just see over the edge of the road. Gets some awesome shots that way.
