Post your photos and stories from the $2000 Challenge here!

Where are the pictures for the April 6, 2024 $2000 Challenge ?

I'm really bad at taking pictures at the track. Is there a place to find the shots that the people with the real cameras took? The background of the $2000 website has a bunch but I don't see a link to them anywhere. 

I'm terrible about learning people's names at the challenge but I was really excited to be parked side by side with the Turbo Solstice team for concours after we had some nice chats and a little grudge competition in the drags.

The best posted 1/4 mile times for these two 4-cylinder turbos were within one thousandth of a second (.001s) of each other!

Here are some more pictures.

Cool stuff.  I think next time I'd stay in the hotel and be closer to the social stuff, at least for the first night. 

Have fun, take pictures!

I want to be clear, i will be moving slower on my own, the cars will still be zippy lol

Nothing like 5 hours in your project car driving on 95 to find all its faults!

I want to be done driving now.

My view.. 

In reply to wvumtnbkr :

We just hit 95. Right there with you.  See you at breakfast. 

We've been on I95 since about 9:30 this morning, it's a rare occasion that I'll say I wish I lived closer to Florida!

I must be getting good at this; it only took me 3 hours driving down 95 this morning to notice a concerning new noise! Luckily I can sleep soundly tonight on the Auto train and leave that problem for future Tim...

I will spare you all the view from here as my "suite" is 1/3 disabled toilet built with all of the grace and style of a government contract.
