Speedwest Weekend – Shellings!! (Final Segment)

Author : cmunroe

Motorsports worldwide is in 6th gear at present, throttle wide open with no thought given to the metal protruding from the floor – labelled -brake pedal! The various series are rolling out and the usual coverage will appear on these pages. But, before I dive into current and upcoming events, I must give a final shout-out to Speedwest Weekend!

Which machine was the most photographed at Speedwest Weekend? Was this machine the leading contender?

It spent a considerable time posing for glamour shots!

The lens searched for imperfection.

But, none was visible.

Until the on-track mishap occurred and the mercenary’s armor was removed.

All of the foreign objects (stones, soil, grass, etc.) were removed from their hiding place.

And the admiration resumed!

And the IMF says we are poor!

This GTR says that notion is absurd!

Incidentally, she left me speechless!

Speedwest Weekend opened a wonderfully-crafted mahogany door to what is possible at the Jamwest facility. Applaud the effort, encourage where possible, but please, I beg of you – do not slay the goose. We await the ‘Big One’!
