Title: Grand Prix of Cleveland (possible 56k difficulty)
Post by: nirvanagod on June 27, 2005, 12:13:35 AM
A friend and I went to the Champ Car Grand Prix of Cleveland today (sunday). They also had a car show and some other cool things such as an assembly of a new dodge charger, tho not every piece! I must admit i'm very much hooked on champ car/indy/f1 car racing now, being as this was the first race i've ever been too! If you've never been to a race like this I highly recommend it! I now know why it's so exciting to watch, and the smell of burnt rubber, racing fuel and exhaust combined with the crashes, recovery's and just plain skill that these drivers have made it one of the coolest experience's i've ever had. Completely awesome!!! Anywho enough rambling, the picks are resonably self explainatory! I must point out Ford was well represented both as a sponsor and as the engines used in the cars.

Oh, f.y.i. it's very hard to take a picture of a car that's going 130+ mph past you without a camera with a hi-speed lens  :rollin: !!!!!
And that last pic of the car with the black covers on it was a manufactuer's poduction test car. We weren't sure, but we think it may have been a Mercedes Benz, or quite possibly an Acura or something. It's definatley strange to see that kind of car just openly driving around in public.
