Buddy of ours brought a hammock. Chillin' in it after a long day of driving fast overlooking Miatas.

Coolest car there. It wasn't on the track with us but gorgeous.

Love to see a 4th generation on the track. It made 375 WHP and pulled like a banshee on the straights.

I love this car simply because it's driven properly. Always one of the fastest cars at any event. It's an E36 M3 on street tires, interior stripped, welded shut sunroof, and it's driven impeccably. Always frightening.

Omni GLHS and a TDI. Cool.

Professional race car driver in a CLS63 on the skidpad. One of the more entertaining cars on the track. The guy drove it like crazy and then the car's electronics would freak out, usually over tire pressure, and pull power from him. It was funny watching him pass people and then immediately give a pass back because the ECU didn't like what he was doing.

And that's all I took with my cell phone.

Great pics Bonus, nutty seeing a Camaro out there.

Coming from Dtmpower and E46Fanatics I know how amazing an e36 M can be.

I wonder if there is any hard data about aero for the small versus large wings.
