Default Eureka Springs Corvette Weekend

Hi,
I've posted some photos from the ESCW autoX on imageshack.
I don't belong to any corvette clubs or forums yet, so if you do
feel free to post the link so other vette fans can see them.

I've searched the web looking for other autoX pics but so
far I've only found pics from the show and other activities.
There was at least one other person taking pics that day
and I'd like to see if they got a pic of my car autocrossing.

That was my first time and I had a blast! There's nothing
like sending your vette into a 4 wheel slide and not having
to worry about getting a traffic ticket. hehe

Except for compressing and reducing the size, the photos
are just as I shot them. (no cropping, color enhancing etc.)

Here's the link-

I hope you enjoy them

So you have never ran an autocross course, or worked at one? It looks
about normal from what I have seen, ran, or work at. Even the
hard-line full time racers will be about the same. This one looks like
a NCCC slow speed event and there are plenty of pictures to verify
that at http://www.corvettesnccc.org/ Pick a club, many have their
event pictures posted.

Note also that some of those cars are carrying a passenger which is
now allowed at some events.

You'll note that #58 car (looks to me like a '68) has very minimal body
roll.
But it takes time and money to do that, and as you can see that's no family
car,
it's all business.
