Hey everybody! I figure it's probably a good time for me to start a blog as I'm always taking pictures at these events. A few days ago was the Oregon Region Porsche Club's Autocross #3 held at Portland International Raceway. We had a huge turnout, mostly good weather, and a good course. Unfortunately we also had the first ever wreck at a ORPCA event when a Novice in a Supercharged fox Mustang Convertible tapped a guardrail. Thankfully everybody was OK and the car was drivable. Take a lesson though, if you spin DON'T try to save it! The run will suck anyways and getting back on the gas will vault you off course! Kudos to the owner/driver for getting right back up on that horse and running the rest of the day. Anyways, here are some pics from the event:
This is what happens when you try to save a snap-oversteer spin with throttle instead of brakes.
Classic 911 on course.

My favorite colored 911!
Targa!

Barry's GT3I am making it my policy to share images with my racing friends for free. I take many, many more pictures than I can ever hope to post, so if you were at one of the events I post, please e-mail me at: amx310 AT gmail DOT com and I will gladly send you the full-size versions of whatever I have.

I was expecting more carnage on the Mustang, that will buff right out.
