Hi Kenny

Nice shots.

The last one looks like the body hasn't caught up to the chassis yet

Thanks! We were only 140-150 feet at the most from the starting line-NO earplugs

I wonder what these would look like at night? I am sure it would be harder to get good shots though!

You see all of the flame as the exhaust blows out of the headers.

Its awesome.

The flame is actually the oxygen becoming disassociated from the hydrogen as the hot exhaust gases exit the pipes and come into contact with the atmosphere, and then the hydrogen burns, supported by the oxygen.

It is easy to photograph with today's digital cameras with great high ISO performance.

A video of a night pass:

Keen eye! While the bug eyes and lifted fenders do give up the Lotus Seven, it is still not in plain sight!

Re the Camaro - you got me there - that weekend there were just too many vehicles out there - most were just parked for the event without the owner or an ID of the specs (the organizers offer special parking for show cars like these... the day I went it was not the auto show per se, but one of the race days).

It is either a 67 or 68, not enough visible to tell for sure. On the 69 the line off of the wheel arch is different.
