Got to spend some quality time with the family and some of NHRA’s top contenders including Antron Brown, John Force, Morgan Lucas and Ashley Force Hood in the pits at Gateway International over the weekend. All the drivers were excited to get their new TRIM SS TEES.

Charlie’s dad Steve hit the Topeka Drag Races a few weeks ago and shot some photos for us.

My friends Jonathan and Sue sat in the Southwest Vista section at IMS with a great view of turn 1, turn 2, and the track entrance from the pits. Turns 1 and 2 were the hotspots for wrecks, and there were some spectacular ones. Everyone was stunned when Marco Andretti got scrubbed into the wall on turn 2 of lap 1 crushing his hope of winning on the 50th anniversary of Mario Andretti’s victory at the 500 in ’69. Chevrolet made a great showing of the new 2010 Camaro both at their booth and on the track as the official pace car. They also showed a Corvette concept that was very cool.

Here’s a link to a story on jalopnik about the most gruesome wreck of the day.

The shots of the Airforce racecar being pulled off the track are from moments after this wreck. Vitor Meira’s car was sliding along the wall, backwards directly towards us and passed right below us before coming to a halt midway up the straight.
