Copperstate 1000 Road Rally AZ style...

[Xplantdad]

Lynn, Holly and I went to the start of the festivities for the Copperstate 1000 (http://www.mensartscouncil.com/cs/) this morning...and I met up with Colin and Kana...Colin's mom, Mike and Ivy Guarise and Mark Murphy (Dreemz). I also ran into Bob Anderson and Dave O., too!

We got there a bit late http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif as the cars were getting ready to take off on their 1000 mile journey though Arizona.

Here are the pics I was able to snap fast...and I mean fast! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif

Bruce,

Thanks and then some, thank you for sharing.

The ummmmmm car is an Osca MT4 I believe and I think I saw a Jaguar XKSS in there, both truly spectacular cars.

Again thanks.

Fred

Glad I could share Fred!

The sweet engine sounds from these cars is truly wonderful...(the big blocks don't sound bad either http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif )

[mockingbird812]
