Default Pics from "The Drivers Edge" event @ TWS

sorry for the crappy pics, my gf took the good camera, all in all it was a good outing, and there were some really nice cars there,
i saw SW's Ferrari on 19" FM-5's and boy is it a beauty, snapped a pic but something happened, this is the car right here, and pictures of the event followed

All of you should go out to spectate at least. Walking through the paddock and seeing the wide variety of cars is amazing.

I've been going to The Drivers Edge events since 1999. Rick puts on a very well organized and safe show. It's a venue that allows the average Joe access to closed courses in order to find out exaclty what the car AND DRIVER are capable of.

It's also a lot of fun to get under the skin of exotic car owners with a heap of an F-Body.

I have never seen any car to car contact at these events.

I am currently scheduled to instruct at the Roush event in March. So, if some of you come out, look for the white #9 Firebird, stop by and say hello.

Hey, my car is in one of those pics. The 8th pic posted by LS1Aggie09.

That black Ferrari was pure sex. The Noble was cool because I've not seen one before. It was also fun seeing a Prowler out there.

That was my 2nd time doing one of these and I had a blast.

Yes, please post some times. I'm curious.

I have been in the 1:59s with my street car. But my CMC Firebird can only seem to muster 2:01s



All times are GMT -5. The time now is 01:15 AM.
