Another year at the Mitty at Road Atlanta in 2007. I drove the Mighty Z up from South FL and my little brother drove down from KY. We are getting this down to an artform, we had a blast, lots of classic car racing, lots of beer, lots of food. What more could anyone want from mancation?
The Kumho Tires guys were there and since I am running Kumhos, I strategically parked and took some pictures. Maybe I will email the pictures to Kumho and get some free stickers or used in an ad.
We did the touring laps again this year which are getting your car on the track and the pace car leads everyone around at 60 mph (the real race cars go about 120 average around the track). But to have even more fun, let the car ahead of you get really far ahead of you then you can go faster through turns!
What fun would a digital camera be if you couldt take a picture of your brother coming out of the porta-pottys?! Nothing like toilet humor!
And the annual turkey leg. These are succulent, however, they look really gruesome after about 7 bites. Yup one dollar per bite. You taste it the rest of the day. Worth every penny.
There were two cool Z racecars there, one was for sale for $8,600 (could not get wife-approved budget for this project) and the other one was in the race.
The GA Z car club sposored the Z car corral and had a tent. A really friendly group. Here are some of the Z's in the corral.
And here are some pics of the other (non-Z) cars. It seems like everywhere you look there were more and more awesome classic race cars. Around every corner in the pits or in every spectator area. For the classic car lover, this really is a terrific event.
HA HA HA!
