    Just let me say that the elevation changes are NUTS, and the OH $H!T factor is INCREDIBLE! I'll try to upload some pics soon. No way TV or a simulator can come close.

    OK I know I'm gonna catch crap for posting pics of a Chevelle on here, but hey, it's a fun track even if you're in a K-car wagon!

    Down hill from turn 11 to 12, this is about where your car "lands" after cresting the hill at 11, and you can start steering again

    Turn 4, this and the next photo were shot from the same location, the next photo is the bottom of the "esses"... you feel like you're falling off a cliff!

    End of back straight viewed from stands at 10B

    This is the only one of the pics shot at speed, 10B starting up hill to 11,
    From here, you're WOT till you get back to turn 1.

    My sigpic is tun 1 of the autox course, its off camber, down hill, decreasing radius. I usually carry the right rear tire a couple inches off the ground, for about 20 ft through that turn.
