Bogus Basin Hill Climb ~mtn run, idaho style~

[GirlieZ]

Hey guys, Just wanted to share some pics my fiancee snapped from a hill climb event at a local ski resort. The club closed down a 2 mile stretch of road from 7000 ft to 8200 feet up the mtn.

Both the front difuser and rear spoiler were made by my fiancee. I think he is going to play with the design some more over the winter.

Sorry for the double post, on my blackberry at a car shoot

Mention to your "fiancee" to clean his image sensor or at least post process those blobs on his photos.

Yea he knows the sensor is dirty, and he is not going to go through and edit 200 plus pictures. Wasn't a commissioned shoot, just snapping pics while bored on course. Thanks for the constructive criticism george

i would have to say, these hill climbs are the shizz. Pretty exciting and rather scary, especially when people don't quite make the turns. Luckily the two i have been to no person has been hurt, only cars. Here is the link to the first driver, first run on day one. Nothing drastic happened but we all had a hella fun time bugging him about it all weekend

There are tons of Hondas that could of easily walked that Vette.

I never said anything that directly compared Hondas to Corvettes. With enough $$$ anything can happen.

[GirlieZ]

pretty sure the fastest run of the weekend wasnt by that Z though but by a c4 :O
