I'm no Greg Phillips but here are some shots I took on Sunday.

I also want to thank our Chief Driving Instructor Keith V for blessing me with driving his Black Beast GT3.

Oh, now I know what throttle oversteer really feels like. Maybe driving a slow car fast has its merits but big horsepower is just amazing.

Thanks Martin, It was good to see everyone at the Q.

P.S. I got lost every time on the first run session .

I didn't care though because I was burning up Keith's tires, gas, ect… and wanted only to press the go pedal to hear that beautiful sound.

I have some pictures too.
Here are some of the images I thought were decent as samples:

I also am uploading all the images I took and will try to sort them by car later in the week. They are currently uploading, so if there are less than 1887 pictures they haven't finished yet.

Thanks to everyone for letting me take cool shots of them, if I can't drive at least I still get to join in the fun.

Eric,

This shot is amazing on multiple levels, and it would be a fantastic candidate for the next Witness cover.

Nice job!!!

yes, 2 sets of very nice photos to use in the Witness. I am downloading now.

Now if someone would like to write an article to go with the photos I will be set :rockon:

Greg

PS for cover shots think vertical :burnout:

Thank you everyone for the compliments. I will continue organizing and pruning the photos. Eventually I hope to have just one or two good shots per driver. (So if you want all the shots of you, get them now)

I didn't think about the Witness or I would have shot some vertically :banghead: Of course, if we got creative with the title we could use the picture on its side :D

If the resolution of the image is high enough, and the car is not filling the entire frame, the image can be cropped into the correct aspect ratio for the cover and still be rich enough to print. Leave it to Greg--he'll fix it!
