Man... AMAZING photos there.

I thought the dragsters were hot, these things have some power.
 
I'm still looking for the car in that picture, are you sure its there? lol
 
It's playing hide and go seek with a nice pair of legs.

And, if you look EVEN closer: theres a really hot chick in the pic!
 
Looks like a blast. That's one thing that open wheeled racing has over NASCAR.....Grid Girls....
 
Nice pics my friend. It would be nice to be able to catch a race like that one day.
