We bought these boxes to hold my jewelry at the Maryland Renaissance Faire, which we went to after a week of classes in West Virginia.
Photos from the Indycar race on September 4th, 2011 - the Baltimore Grand Prix. You can tell the high shutter speed Andreas used when you see the (deliberately) blurry ones as comparison. Last of the Grand Prix pics, and can't go next year cause I'll b in Europe.
A racer from days gone by still in great shape, even if it is a Corvette.... and the car I'd buy if I had the money. Isn't this black Aston Martin beautiful? It'd be a bit easier to get here than in the States, but I just can't afford it. The roads here would tear it up, too. It couldn't even drive down the myriad potholes strung together that constitute the road I live on. I still want, though!
The Baltimore Grand Prix had some entertainment on Saturday evening. Several local bands whose names I don't remember played, and Collective Soul was the headliner. The local bands were pretty good. Collective Soul - the lead singer was obviously drunk or stoned. We left before they finished.
More car close ups, but the last picture is the best. It's of my son actually sitting in one of the Jaguars that had raced earlier. Talk about giving the fans something special! Thank you Jaguar LeMans Team!
You can get so much closer to the cars and their crews in a LeMans pit... these pictures show it.
You can tell because I'm putting up more of the LeMans than anything else in this set. Look how open and accessible they are compared to the others. The cars are beautiful, even after having been driven hard, too.
