placerville CA

my buddy who helped me renovate my pond a few years back happens to be a fixture at the local race track. he's been pushin race cars for 25 years. i've been invited several times, but finally decided to put some of it on film. its always a blast.

the night was supposed to be just pushing and wreck clearing, but the pace car fella was late, so we ended up also being the pace car.

i've never loaded a video here, so this a test of that as well, hope it works and doesnt jam up yer puters......i linked two videos at the bottom (each about 5 megabytes) ONE is a pushing video, the other shows some racing.........i have some great pace car videos, one catches a doozy of a wreck, but i'm scared to put them here cause they go over 20 megabytes.

anyways, enjoy...
