well, that's no fun. I saw "Brainerd" and thought "What's Mike doing in Minnesota??"

Is there a Brainerd Pessimist Dragway?

 

[mlschultz]

lol Mike Likewise...


Mark, Yes there is. It is the outhouse, or should I say drainage ditch with walls at the track. Every time I get 100 feet from it, I cringe. It is a total downer for me. It is across the road from the snack bar no less

Had some fun today at the track! Here are some Wendy Vision Pics.

Here is a link to some event pics taken by Tommy Lee Byrd. He is the photographer that did the photo shoot of my car, and is putting together a book about "Sleeper" cars. Chances are good The Mark will be in the book - I hope... BTW, Wendy took a picture of Tommy, taking a picture of me, in her rapid fire shots above.

Here is a link to some more photography of DFT9 by Jason Cole. I purchased a 8x10 from Jason, and a 8x10 from Tommy on what they call metallic paper. Thought I would give it a try. Just a couple bucks more than regular luster and glossy print.
