My car at the finish of the 2012 Nevada Open Road Challenge.

90 mile run down highway 318 at an average speed of 159.57 mph with a top speed
of 203 mph. Encounter a few bugs along the way....

Silver state classic? Always wanted to do that..

something a little different for some shock value.

my old ride from last October.

this is what happens when you have a new baby that refuses to sleep through the night. I fell asleep at the wheel with my wife and son in the back seat. the car went off the road, I woke up, over-corrected, and side-swiped a guardrail. the car flipped over (not sure how many times). we all walked away without a scratch, and no other vehicles were damaged.

the backseat where my wife and son were sitting was virtually undamaged. the front caved in to where I was slouched down in the seat by the time the car stopped flipping (landed right-side up by the way). the back was equally as caved in.

Wow. Glad everyone was ok. I can't even imagine how terrified I'd be for the kids especially...

tell me about it. my son was 4 months old at the time. I never thought I would actually fall asleep at the wheel.

Thats scary!

wow, glad you and your family are ok, next time drink a lot of coffee

Same organization runs both the SilverState and NORC. Here's shot of my car behind an Ultima GTR and Ford GT40 in the start pits.

Never underestimate the power of sleep.. When I was younger I would hit the shore every weekend, was coming home at 4am one night, I remembered getting on the highway, and all of the sudden there was a toll booth in front of me.. I was apparently asleep for 6 miles.. how I stayed on the road, I have no idea.. But THAT woke me up.. Glad you and the family are ok.

Drool... I love me some GT40.

My new MINI Countryman S ALL4.

Nice collection there. The 512TR is one of the coolest Ferraris ever, IMO.
