Straight-piped V8 Corvette race cars are truly loud vehicles, and the bokeh’ed child putting his hands over his ears in the background is strong testament.

What else can I say? “The red ones goes faster.”
Drifting at #GRIDLIFE Circuit Legends 2026
This post “does what it says on the tin,” as they say.
Let’s start with a pair of Mustangs from very different eras:
Followed by another drift car from Nappy Boy Automotive:
And finishing with a Nissan Silvia.
Three 3ers
A drift train of BMW 3ers (a.k.a. E36 3-series) at #GRIDLIFE Circuit Legends shows how differently similar starting points can evolve into wild performance vehicles.
Porsche in the Shadows
Earlier sunsets mean dramatic shadows on the way home from work.
#GRIDLIFE Corvette
Corvettes were unsurprisingly in abundance at #GRIDLIFE Circuit Legends, but the particular livery of this GT car combined perfectly with motion blurs.
Family Driftmobile
Last weekend brought #GRIDLIFE Circuit Legends to Lime Rock Park and I went full photographer, including a new circularly polarized filter that reveals new details, like the driver and passenger inside this drifting Volvo wagon.
Car Guys: Chevy vs. Ford
When it comes to classic car guys, the Chevy (wagon) versus Ford (truck) debate leads to some serious vehicle comparisons in the evening California sun.
Shelby Cobra (Real, Or Close Enough)
A real Shelby Cobra is a multi-million dollar machine, so it’s no surprise that it’s one of the most kit-car-copied vehicles in existence—so much so that my default assumption upon seeing a Cobra-shaped vehicle is to assume it’s a replica. In this case, I’m not so sure—could this be the real deal?
Passenger
A bright gold shirt is a great way to stand out against the black paint of this mid-1950s Buick.
Brothers’ Cars
Two brothers, two coupes, together at sunset.
Race-Prepped Porsche
The little details—the hood latches, the roll cage, the vents through the plexi windows—are what made this particular vehicle stand out in the paddock. The red paint doesn’t hurt, either.
Miata Parade
NA Miatas returning to the paddock after lapping Lime Rock Park make for quite a 1990s throwback parade.
Miatas with Big Wings
MiataCon brought an array of modified-beyond-recognition Miatas to Lime Rock Park—with many of them sporting monster wings.
The 10-year-old in me has to admit that they look neat.
Of course, their goals vis-à-vis downforce weren’t always accomplished. (Believe it or not, the blue Miata managed to avoid colliding with the McDonald’s-colored Miata.)
Race Track Landscape
Lime Rock Park is a classic racing circuit among the rolling hills of northwestern Connecticut; while each of these components is visually compelling, I’m still working at finding the right way to combine the two different scales into a single image that captures the experience.
