OK... so I finally got around to getting the pics off my digi-cam and found a place to host them since the server that I usually use crapped out on me

So here are the pics!

Oh... and if you are wondering about the chicken scewered on the antenna... that's on top of Will Turner's car. I guess he likes chickens?!

Good shots. My aunt is the chick who works for turner...as seen in the first shot. I got to work with them for about 4 or 5 races this year, great time. Met a couple of the guys off of here at the lime rock car show. There is a long story behind the chicken. Those guys love to have fun. dont believe me. check out their ads, they usually have some completely random line at the bottom. The other drivers also have antenna ornaments. Last races i was at Bill had a jack in the box guy and frank had the "barbie" with bouncing assets.

That's awesome!! I have met Will a few times and it was my first time meeting Bill. They are great guys. They were on pre-grid when I talked to them this time though, so didnt have much time to chat.

I will have some video done soon as well. I need to get one of my machines here at home setup for editing though. Damn I miss my old workstation!

Ha ha... yeah, I was laughing when I looked at the picture later that day.

I have another pic of me with Bill Auberlen during pre-grid for the Speed GT race. That is on the film camera though, so I need to get those pics developed before I can see if he was trying to look bad-ass again

He is one lucky guy... He raced the Turner Motorsport 325i in the Speed Touring Car Championship, the PTG M3 in the Speed GT Championship, and a Ferrari (not sure which team) in the ALMS race.

He is one hell of a lucky man. He also has run numerous races in the doran LMP900 car and a few races in their Grand Am prototype car. Not to mention whenever BMW has a historic festival (like the one at lime rock 2 or 3 weeks ago) he gets to drive the old BMW LMP car around. It was awesome to get the oppurtunity to meet him this year as well. very down to earth, hell i even threw a football with the guy in the paddock at Road Atlanta. But back to topic, nice pics man.

yeah, nice pics. I got a chance to rummage around the PTG and the Turner MS tents when they were at Road Atlanta. Definitely a cool experience to get so close to these cars. One team even let me sit in the driver's seat.

Heh... I got some of the racing on 35mm and the rest is on MiniDV video

Give me a week or so to get it all developed and edited and I will post it up here.
