We just got word we actually finished third, not second at the Yerington 300 due to a glitch in VORRA’s transponder system. I don’t like this news, but we won’t take second place in a race due to a technical error, so congrats to Scott Weir and team for their second place finish at the Yerington 300.
After nine hours of racing, the top the cars were separated by 90 seconds. Amazing. Thankfully, we’re still second in season points. But first place is farther away now.
Next up, at the Baja 1000 back in 2007, I shot some photos of a little kid whose t-shirt was signed by just about every race team. I remember him because he was shy and I remember autographing his shirt and taking his picture in front of the car.
Somehow his dad, Carlos Bravo, found that image, emailed me and asked for a hi-res version. I had 10 images and sent them. His son is older now, they have a race car. I’m looking forward to meeting them in Ensenada in November at the Baja 1000.
