I especially found the photo of Greg's car on the home page quite interesting. Any more people in the car for his victory lap and he'll have to start racing a minivan!
We did take one of my crew guy's Honda Odyssey on a track ride at NHIS once. It was even sillier when we braked hard going into turn 3... then everything on the floor of the van came forward to the foot wells; books, tennis balls, kleenex box, etc!
Yup, and I got my hand slapped for it. Seems some time between now and the last time I got to do a crew victory lap for such a big event the GCR was changed: now, everyone needs to be INSIDE the car.
Oops.
That'd be why there's a photo of me in impound having a heart-to-heart with the group steward...
I got talked to, lesson learned. Best part? Ain't gonna see many of those from ANYONE any time soon...
When that picture first was online, I said... opps someone made a mistake!!! However, I would argue in your case if you did get in trouble, that someone should have stoped you before you even got on the track!!! I remember my first win and victory lap I took my brothers girlfriend and my girlfriend on the lap, in the rain... The Stewards and the girls were a bit unhappy with my excitement and I am still getting yelled at for it to this day - nice shot
