The Original Jake drawing
I was reading about the story behind how our beloved Jake came into being. That it was from a flaming skull drawing done on the pit walls of the Corvette racing pit stall at the 2004 Lemans and under the drawing was written "Take no Prisoners" now as you might have guessed this is right up this Pirates alley so I was wondering if anybody may have or know of a link to a picture of this. Someone had to take a picture since it was Lemans and well it was obviously thought cool enough to become a mascot for Corvette racing right?
