my first autocross...

2009.04.05
everyone gridded up.

a very ricey-looking corvette. looked like something right out of the fast and the furious.

there was a ton of three-wheeling action going on, but i think this integra should've gotten an award for it.

this go kart pulled times better than the majority of the grid today. but i bet he didn't feel all that safe every time he hit a cone...

nice little mini.

a clean 350z. the paint color stuck to me, for some reason.

the fast and furious corvette was actually pulling comparatively good times.

a very dedicated miata.

this guy's trunk kept popping open mid-course, and it was always at the very last turn.

this was my favorite car out there: a lotus exige. you could hear it's supercharger from all the way across the track. it wasn't pulling the best times, but it sure looked and sounded like it was. that front wheel tucking into the fender is cringe-inducing, though i'm sure it was nowhere near rubbing, considering how little roll this car had.

a very sexy viper was out there, too.

another dedicated mazda. there was a lot of them. huge wheels.

this was the oldest car out there, but defintiely not the slowest.

lotus elise.

shelby gt. these and the other mustangs seemed huge compared to the go-kart-like cars that were running.

another shot of the elise.

an old corvair.

suprisingly, the only evo i saw out there today.

and back to the grid to do it all over again...

went to check out one of nwr-scca's events today over in bremerton. pretty cool, to say the least. i saw cars from old school, pretty much stock lexuses (lexi?) to completely gutted and modified lotus exiges. and they all ran together in the same grid.

it was nice to shoot a different kind of motorsport. and the drive out to bremerton wasn't too bad, either.

took the ferry back home, but didn't take any shots of that. i was busy napping in the car, recuperating from all that awesome sunshine we had.
