Thanks Mike. Unlike some people, I do more than take pictures of the cars. I try and get the whole atmosphere of the event including, most importantly, the good looking women. The Varmits do have one advantage, we get into the pits. The average race goer doesn't see them close-up.

Thanks for posting. My buddy was there and did say it was cold and windy. They had to keep sweeping the track due to the blowing sand

A Ferrari, with the sliding window in the door, somehow just ain't PC.
