XDC LA rd 1 Part 1 of 2

Finally, I finished processing the images from XDC Rd1 in LA. I know, I know, it took me a while... it's been a busy week! Here you go...

I went out to Irwindale with my brother Ryan and Joshua. We got there early enough to avoid the long line.

Going around the pit area, I saw some sick rides and most of the drivers are ready for the qualifying but we saw Jeff Abbott still trying to fix his power steering issue.

Here are the qualifying runs.

Here is Chris Forsberg's Infiniti M45 giving ride alongs with some of the spectators.
