She "cheated" the camera out in front of the cars...so she could get them starting off https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

She told me that she knew when the cars were going to 'go'...it was when it got "really quiet"! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

I think my wife is too cool... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

She did a great job, Bruce! It's true, when both fuel cars fully stage the sound of the engine changes slightly, I don't know why..

She wanted Brandon Bernstein in the upper left of this photo..so I creatively cropped it https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Hint...he's right below the PPG logo! Sheesh...my wife knows these guys better than I do! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/blush.gif

Sam...the sound quality is pretty good, too! I figured that it would have been really distorted https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Glad that you enjoyed them
