Dad
returned to autocrossing in the year 2000 and brought friend Jeff along with him.
Here Jeff skillfully hustles his 3300lb Volvo around the course on street tires. |
Jeff
hits the stop box cleanly, but cringes at the 500 miles of tirewear he doled out in the
last minute. Soon after this photo he orders racing tires :) |
Competitor
Steve Barber drives an NX like Dad's. You can see a small puff of tire smoke behind
the rear wheel, the result of it locking as all the weight is on the other 3 wheels. |
This left-hander at the back of the course gets the inside rear
wheel cleanly off the ground. |
Dad approaches a slalom as Mom, Eddie, Veronika, Allison, and Uncle
Mark look on. |
Dad
tried the low-drag windows-up, t-tops-on approach suggested by Uncle Mark. Kinda
tough on a hot day! |
