The jump crew and ground crew. Bill, Joe, Red, Greg (me - Model Citizen), and Ryan before the last jump of the event. I've got my wingsuit on, ready to fly!

Three chutes in the air. Beautiful! That's me (red smoke), Ryan (blue smoke), and Joe with the American flag.

Several Stearman biplanes showed up. Stearman biplanes were built in the 1930's and 1940's and were used as training aircraft during WWII.

Bill doing the announcing for the team. Although I couldn't hear it, I'm told he made up some wild stuff and kept the crowd guessing and entertained.

Model Citizen flying long streamers. Custom-made 70 foot long red, white, and blue streamers I had made. They got a little twisted up on this jump. :(

TBs and GCs on my tired S2000 after the track day. Several travel bugs and geocoins went with me to the TGPR private track event and enjoyed a day full of speed, g-forces, adrenaline, and shredded tires.

Mini Coopers on TGPR. These are just four of the seven (I think) Mini Coopers that showed up for the TGPR race event. Most of them are part of a Mini club that had been wanting to rent the track but didn't have enough participants, so they joined in with us instead.

Another scared, but happy customer. Dan B gave lots of people rides in his LS3-powered RX7. Dan is a race instructor and really knows how to turn some fast lap times. It can be scary, but FUN, riding with him. His sister just got a ride with him and they spun out, but she loved it!

A beautiful Porsche Cayman that came to play. Unfortunately, after a session or two the owner spotted an oil leak coming from the engine and didn't run it anymore.

Austin: "Can I get a ride?" We often take rides in other people's cars during our track day events. Austin came with his dad and didn't bring his own car, so he spent the day bumming rides from other drivers. Steve R was more than happy to oblige.

Steve R flying down the back straight. The R1 motorcycle engine is revved to the max and is screaming its high-pitched battle cry as he approaches the end of the straight.

The Yamaha R1 engine in Steve R's race car. Such a small engine to deliver 180 horsepower. It does it by being able to rev really high: over 13,000 rpm. It sounds so beautiful when it's wound up to the high revs.
