I've gotten to see a lot of beautiful things over the past 50 years and over this past weekend, my tally of awesome moments grew a bunch. The exotic cars in the SRO America racing series brought a special elegance to the New York countryside at Watkins Glen International. Seeing these ultra-expensive works of art tear around the historic turns of this timeless circuit brings out feelings of awe and wonder at every twist and turn. The roar of such rare beauties being pushed to their limits carving around the black ribbons of asphalt was like a sweet symphony of cheetas on the hunt. The competition was fierce as these unleased animals hunted victory through the wine country of the finger lakes. It was a great weekend for photos as well...
