I came across my old cell phone this morning. I had cleared the inbox, but 108 Sent messages were calling my attention. One response in particular made me smile. It was sent on qualifying day from the Tuxtla Gutierrez Fairgrounds. It seems, I had been corresponding with a number of past La Carrera participants, keeping them updated with the ongoing antics while I was making my rounds and taking photos of the participants in La Carrera Panamericana 2008.
"Warm and sunny! There's a bunch of crazy men here all a-twitter about some great race. What's THAT all about! lol!"
(Ahhhhh! La Carrera Panamericana! You'll never know until you try it!)
Photos of the historic racecars in La Carrera Panamericana 2008 and 2007 along with photos of 2008 Chihuahua Express and 2008 Pike's Peak International Hill Climb can be found by clicking here.
