Just another crazy day of vintage racing, one of the best burgers I've ever had, a supercar photo shoot, driving a Carrera GT, and dinner with an amazing racing family.

What is tomorrow going to bring?

 

More photos from Day 3. Carb day is tomorrow and promises to be another excellent day:

Christian brings up a great point that I forgot to mention. We had dinner with Graham and his family after the photoshoot tonight. Great food and even greater company. I was honored to have dinner with a legendary family like the Rahal's.

Thank you again Graham for the invite and your hospitality.

One last photo for tonight. Not may people can claim to have a license plate frame on a car like this:

EPIC!

 

All of today's photos (except for the photoshoot) are up and posted here:

Indy 500 - a set on Flickr

 

Great stuff! Keep it coming!!!

 

One more shot before I go to bed. I need to get editing on the rest of the photos and post them up--James is much better at being proactive about that than I am!

Contemplation before going out in Indy Lights qualifying:

 

Great stuff guys!! Dinner with the family, that must have been great. Flickr sure sucks to look at pics on the iPad tho. Reps when I get to a computer.

 

OK. Time for a massive update! Today was totally and completely awesome! No other words to describe it. The heat was oppressive and we were drenched in sweat by the end of the day, but when you see the photos, you'll understand how awesome it was to be there. Again Graham came though with some amazing access for us. Standing in the pits as they ran the pit stop challenge was incredible. Now, on to the photos!





























It was seriously hot today:


















There was a massive wreck on lap 5 of the Indy Light race and this guy limped back to the pits.

 

UMMMM No comment….
