[Fot] K Cup '12 some Photos

Mon Apr 30 10:52:15 MDT 2012

I took over a thousand -- will spend a week editing and arranging.  Thought
To post a few.  they are at:

.

My favorrite was the father and son team of Quinn [son] and Leigh Derby
driving insanely fast spits.  They came in 4/5th respectively -- with dad
having the fastest time -- in the 1:49 range -- just spectacular.  Randy
not only drove the TR3's wheels off, he finished the K Cup and immediately
jumped into his E Jag for the next race.  Immaculately prepared and
presented cars.  He did pass Mike Munson a couple of times  -- nad Mike is
a great driver of an SCCA prepared TR6.  The 75 car [Newman Tribute]
unfortunately crashed had into a wall on the esses during the fist
practice.  The strat was spectacular and if Jerry Barker's Spit had held
together we would have had a different order of finish -- he is the white
one in the start picture and came from 8th or so to 2nd on the front
straight [maybe 3rd, did not see what happened between he and Munson going
up the hill after turn 1.

Much more reporting to come.  Wish I got to drive, but sure appreciate
Henry getting me a media pass so I could roam the track taking pictures.
