Pix from the Track





Here's the Led Sled, clear winner on the day at over 200 feet. This was taken before an unfortunate meeting with the gutter, something that happened to a few of us after the ski club last night.





Damon, admiring the fine lines of his balsa wood creation "the Tull-Meister".




Pit lane before the race. A good cross section of most of the field.
