Pictures taken with Sony Digital Video Handycam and captured with Dazzle DV-Editor

This year we got the World Challenge Fan Club ticket, which included a Question and Answer Forum with the drivers. Here is the World Challenge Announcer introducing 2 touring car drivers.


Derek Bell & Johannes Van Overbeek


Peter Cunningham listening to a touring car driver.

The Fan Club ticket also included parade laps! There were a ton of NSXs out there in support of Peter Cunningham's return to NSX.


Here we are going into Big Bend.


The Esses were extremely slippery!


No Name Straight is not straight at all.


But the Uphill is well named.


About to take the Diving Turn.


Diving Turn is quite a downhill!


We had about 5 C5s all together.

The rain let up enough for me to check out the GrandAmerican Milestones exhibit. Here's the 1970 Lamborghini Miura S.

Ferrari


BMW M1

The Fan Club ticket also includes a paddock pass. These prototype cars drove by after they finished qualifying.
Here is the #20 Dyson.


#74 Robinson


#37 Intersport

Tons of Grand-Am GT cars for the viewing.
Here is the old Home Improvement Saleen Mustang. #5 is now a Saleen S7R.
