Whoooo! Very nice pics of some very nice rides. You should have taken the Prius to stand out a little. I wish I would have known about this, I would have tried to go.

Very sad news.

There might be more cops up there trying to keep the speeds down. The Dry Run people should be extra careful this coming saturday.

I was thinking the same when I saw that pic. Actually I was leaning more towards the unsharpened tool theory.

When I was near his car (I didnt know that was his at that time), taking pics of that yellow CGT, ppl will come up to him and give him some inside joke, hugs or warm hand shakes, in midst of "exotic" cars, he, himself was getting the most of attention by others, eventho I didnt get a chance to meet him but from other's reaction when they see him? he got to be well liked and will be genuinely missed...I was about good 50 yards away when he pull out of parking lot? his exhaust was so loud, I was actually amazed that windows near by didnt shattered.

Here is the vid of his car and exhaust...(courtsy of tkc from fchat)

Man, that's a damn shame about Luis. My condolences to his family and friends. Reminds me that when driving a car, that we are a split second and a bad choice away from realizing our own mortality . . . Drive safely all.
