Track Day at COTA

[Glenn B.]

These shots are from last weekend at COTA. Obviously, my Webers are running a little rich, looking at the flames coming out the exhaust.

The sound of launching this car between the grandstands makes me smile....

Smart looking car. How did you do the see through pic?

 

[Glenn B.]

Honestly, I don't know the details.

The track photographer set up a tripod, took one shot with the rear clip up and then another with the rear clip down, being very careful that nothing moved. I assume he combined the images through the magic of Photoshop. That's as much as I know about photography. Sorry that I couldn't give more guidance.

Here's an HD video on YouTube of my feeble attempt to tame this beast. My goal for the day was not to suck.

I bet that is a blast, great video

Nice vid, thanks!

Last one...

a view from camera we had attached to the rear license plate. Gives a much better perception of the speed of the car. The guy with the Porsche Cayman thought he was doing really well keeping up with a Can-Am car until I got heat into the tires at 4 minutes in and pushed the loud pedal all the way down.

Nice!

I was at Harris Hill that weekend. I wish I would have stopped by and seen that in person. Looks like fun!

 

[Jack]

Nice Glenn, sounds great too!

The cars look amazing...
I wish I had taken advantage of the opportunity to run on COTA back when I was still in competition...
Olf - absolutely spectacular!!!
