Elloree Horse races

I was trying to get a group picture but the race started.

So, Here is my second try.


This is a flock of birds overhead while Wendy and I kissed. :)

This horse thought he would finish better without a jockey.

A view of the crowd.


The Budwieswer Dalmatian and drivers...the Clydesdales are there too but I was yelling at Don to get the dog. I know - it was a horse race but whatever.


Parachuters kicked the race off...this one had the American Flag.


Bobby used a very technical way to choose which horse to bet on. If the jockey had tatoos, that was his horse. It worked well for him actually. Go figure.

Jamie and Lawana gave us the tickets to attend the races. THANKS for a great day!!



Some pictures of Jamie working the race. A real cowboy.

Here are some shots of the races.

After breakfast today Kevin, Josh, and I helped Dr. Bob pull the engine and transmission from his latest project.





Only two hours later and the engine and transmission are split and the engine is on it's stand.

I spent this weekend at the Grand-Am Rolex 24hr race at Daytona International Speedway.


Porsche Club of America provided infield parking for PCA members.

My car made the 670 mile round trip without any problems.

A view from the start/finish line looking into turn 1.

Before the race spectators are allowed on parts of the track. The embankment is about 30 degrees at the start/finish line.

Past winners of the Rolex 24hr ran a few laps prior to this years race.

#14 is the entry by Autometrics here in Charleston.


As the race continued the rotors started to glow under heavy breaking.
