I guess we should make the series complete and document the first event at Lime Rock too. I've only got a few pics and no vids. Hopefully, others have more.

Trackside at RRI, video is a bit shaky, expected when handheld and zoomed in all the way...

PS: A 'monopod' comes in very handy in these situations and it's very easy to carry...

Nice job with the limited equipment of the day! At 1:30 or so, I think I hear the distinct opening of a beer over the chaos of the Porsche engines...Originally Posted by 914-6gt

Ya! I think you're right! If I'm not mistaken, that was a '12 oz. Coors can'. Wouldn't surprise me one bit...At 1:30 or so, I think I hear the distinct opening of a beer over the chaos of the Porsche engines...
What a great event this was. I was there for all four days and it was a scorcher at 95 degrees each day. It would be great for Rennsport to come back to Limerock Park.
Great post Curt.
