Grah, I don't know how I missed this thread but I wish I hadn't. People like me could really use some sort of NW Calendar or something...

My camera is busted, so all I have are phone pics.

On the way there, I found the gas to be $4.18 / gallon for 92 octane!

The silver 8's look really good next to each other! Man I wish I could have made it. I can not believe only 3 8's showed up.

Is that a dry sump oiling system or a secondary reservoir for his OMP on the front?

My understanding is that at 1.4G's you can loose oil pickup. That is a pressurized oil reservoir to make up oil flow for when this happens to his car. The smaller can is his oil filter relocated - all custom made by Dan the Man himself.

I would've come out and Southern Idaho would've had a bit of representation if mine hadn't been in lots and lots of pieces due to busted apex seals. I was really looking forward to this from the first time I'd heard about it. Next year, I'll be there.
