By far the coolest picture I have ever taken! I actually got some really great shots (even better, clearer, and more colorful than this one), but it was my goal this summer to catch some of the RX8s shooting fireballs. I'm glad I got this one early in the season, LOL! I wish the 69 boys would've cleaned their car before the pic, though...
Anyways, I had a great time. I might write up a big thank you and pour out my heart and soul, but I need to rest and recover before then...oh, and go through the rest of the 400 pictures that will be added to Flickr... Thanks to everyone who was a part of this memorable experience!

James, please send me a link to all of the pics when you are done, I need to upload them to Mazdaspeed Motorsport's Facebook page and also to send to Castrol and Grand-Am.

Just wanted to thank all of you guys who worked your asses off this weekend! It was a great success, Mazdaspeed Motorsports is very happy, as you know by John's and Jim's statements at dinner. Grand-Am was very pleased, as we continue to have the most cars again, 3 years running and we do have the best people as well! Looking forward to keeping the momentum going, as we head into a really important test, with Lime Rock and Road Atlanta!
Great job guys and we'll see you at the next event. BTW, Castrol was happy as well, as one of the execs from Castrol was impressed by the number of Mazda owners cars in the corral and the display set up in our tent.

Will do. They will be uploaded to a Flickr account, which can then be downloaded and put anywhere. Thanks Marlon!

This is on the Grand-Am website
Even with all of the excitement on track, the Freedom Autosport drivers still found time
to meet with Mazda owners participating in the weekend’s Mazda car corral. In addition,
the team sold team shirts and raffled off prizes, including a high-performance driving
school donated by Chin Motorsports, to raise money for the Injured Marine Semper Fi
Fund. The team, assisted by the Team Ohio Mazda Club, raised over $1200 during the
course of the weekend.
Thanks to Lauri, Tom, Pablo, The Phen, Chippy, Justine, Larry, Jenny, Dave B and Greg (Carolina Mazdas) for their assistance, you guys did a helluva a job!
