Well, it's been a LONG time in the making, but I finally drove BFP in her first weekend of wheel-to-wheel racing at Eagles Canyon this past weekend.

The NASA Texas AI/CMC gang is a fantastic group of weekend racers and everyone had a blast on and off the track.

Being a rookie I started each race from the back, and despite being a tad under-powered, BFP still made a respectable showing.

 I also had a chance to hang a bit with the Texas Time Trials crew who welcomed me in their midst earlier this year while BFP was being prepped for legal race prep - they are also a great group of people!

I've got in-car video from most of the quallification and races that I will post in a week or so once I have a chance.

In the meantime, here's a montage from one of the other racers...look for BFP's cameo appearances at the beginning and then toward the end

My Comments From: BlueFirePony Oct 18 2008, 2:13 pm There is a LOT of trust not to mention skill amongst the drivers.  Still, racing is a VERY risky activity and **it happens.  I'll be posting some more vidz in a few days.
