That was pretty cool. You're right about the chances of something happening.
More money than brains I would suspect.
This is what happened to one of those weekend warriors with a ton of money
shortly after we got off the track in the Noble. See pic. The owner was
laughing about having half a mile of tubing in his garage he was wanting to do
something with. Now he'll take the parts from the wasted GT and build a
project.

Lemmesee...240 mph; the angle of the dangle times the focal length divided by

sec. to give really nice wheel blur with panning. My Bogen tripod with video
head would be just right. But, carrying that beast; Bombsville! C.

This has been an item of "discussion" (condemnation would be a better
word for it) on www.landracing.com (
http://www.landracing.com/forum/index.php/topic,6902.0.html ) and I
finally watched the long video with my blurry eyes. Yeah, I prolly
otta be doing other stuff, but what the hell, huh?
I'm assuming that the orange/green critters are Lamborghini
Murcielagos...but I'm not all that familiar with the supercar
thing. But running 4 or 5 cars abreast from a standing start
is...well, only a matter of time before someone blows a tire or a
motor and then.....
Wacked, man.
