Wink race fans at Laguna Seca last weekend

This was an interesting and potentially dangerous spectator at last weekend's POC races...

Great photographs!!!!

Not quite as dangerous (to people outside of a car), but we've got some pictures of a family of foxes living at the apex of turn 9 at Willow Springs.

Now we can argue that sound limitations are hazardous because without the noise, dangerous wildlife can live closer to the track.

I thought this thread was going to be about how a 928 whipped their asses out there.

Few years ago there was a pair of chimpmunks on the exit of turn 12 at Road America. Lap after lap they stood there watching the cars go by.

See if you can trap and ship some to Summit Point. They will eat well on the fat and plentifull groundhogs.

Cool find! We just took delivery of a kitten, a Chausie. A similar breed, but our's is an F3 model, three generations from wild cats.

Good pics. Garret! I live in Carmel Valley, and my friends who ride mountain bikes in the old Fort Ord area around the track say the bobcats will sit and watch bikers go past from about 5 feet away- a little disconcerting... they seem to waiting for one about bite-sized, haha... nobody has been eaten---yet!

Chris, I hear chaussies can get to be 30 lbs!

Not this year Eric. There just hasn't been enough member-interest over the past few years to make the event financially feasible. We're going back to Las Vegas this year instead on their outdoor road course Oct. 24-26.
PCA race licensed drivers are welcome...

Nice shots. I've pulled into Laguna Seca in the evening to drop my trailer and had to wait for a red fox to decide to let me park.

There's one less, I can assure you...

Total in damages was "estimated" at $5240... Expensive weekend on ****ty pavement, dodging little furry rats...
