I tried the heart attack yesterday, but it looks better than it tastes....
Something about cold "fresh" chips didn't blend with the cheese and bacon....
Next time I'll get the 10" Italian Sausage.... (Let the jokes begin...)

About the same amount of spectators. I likes the qualifying days. I likes to see everybody run and run hard.
I liked the saying on this shirt....
Yep, lots of misfiring cylinders by the end of the track and a couple broken drive lines....
They had a "Blues Mobile" on display....
That looks nutritious
A few hotties for the guys....
Those shots were from my usual Sony camera...
I later switched to the Cannon and it was much better....
However, I accidentally moved the setting and after that all the pictures were over exposed... I am still learning how to use this camera, but it was much better for the ones that did turn out... It is so fast, I can get a few shots of the burnouts alone.... The Sony takes so much time you're lucky to get only one...
Well, here we go:

Well, here we go:
Here's a series of just one race, from burnout to down the track....
A single run....
Here's a good run....
Here's a run where both cars dropped a cylinder before the end of the race....
One of the over exposed shots...
It's the first time a motorcycle broke 200 MPH on the Joliet track....

Needs a roof rack with a keg of Shady!
Good Morning All! Looks like a fun time!

A little warmer this morning,11 degrees and cloudy.
Rain in the forecast,but farmers need it.
And firefighters could use a break.
