So, full background on the situation is that I started coming out to PHX in 2015 for testing because Indycar decided to go back to PIR for a 2016 race after a long hiatus (hadn't raced there since '05). I had always loved the desert SW, but hadn't been back for any period of time since childhood. Between the time spent leading into the 2016 race and the experience of picking up the '40 in Sonoita, Brittany and I both decided F it, we're moving west. The move alone was pretty challenging, what ultimately happened was Brittany moving in August, our stuff moving out in August (behind Brittany), and me and my other cars moving out in October. Some crazy s*** happened that happened to enable me to move our stuff myself (with my dad's help). Google 2015 indycar texas crash...most terrified I've ever been for my driver on the timing stand. Long story, but I (unfortunately) ended up with a free weekend that I wouldn't have otherwise had.
The photos above are from that time period. After I finished the race season, we then took the opportunity to hit Route 66 and US60 (I actually preferred 60) in the other old relics. Pics from that trip below.
Somewhere on the way out:
Had to hit up Toby Keith's I Love This Bar in OKC, this was a bigger night than it should've been with a decent drive ahead:
Nothin like seeing your love behind the wheel of a classic while at the wheel of another, just cruisin:
Overturned semi, somewhere in OK. We ultimately routed around everyone and through a gravel road that others were apparently afraid to take. Nothing for these old German steeds, they're meant to be used (that said I was afraid I'd start a fire with the heat exchangers in the brush so had to stay out of that):
Ran out of room for photos, next:
