Carolina Motor Sport Park -March
It took me longer to get this album together than I wanted, but here it is. I spent the first weekend of March at the Carolina Motorsports Park with the Carolina Porsche Club. A very nice day with a rather impressive display of cars. I never get tired of seeing the Porsche GT3, however there were several other beauties which made their appearance. A pair of GT3 RS machines hit the track as well as a Nissan Skyline (which I have never actually seen before), an interesting Lotus (I think), a whole slew of Porsche Caymans as well as a VW Scirocco. Some wild paint jobs were on display too, one of which was a multi-color one which changed color depending on how the light reflected off it; unusual and amusing. Even a GT2 was on hand and if you look really closely you might see a Corvette Z06 pretending to look a lot like a Porsche.
As always a big thanks to Harvey Yancey for letting me come out there, too bad I didn’t get any pictures of him on the track. Regrettably his machine suffered some mechanical issues and wasn’t quite up to track readiness. A real disappointment considering the new suspension and transmission had just been installed. And further this was the first run of the new track configuration at Kershaw.
Harvey took it all in stride and eased his sorrows by teaching his student in a Porsche GT3 (#48), tough work…
I hope you enjoy the shots!
