El Mirage Racers in Men's Journal
« on: September 11, 2009, 12:15:21 PM »
There's a decent pictorial in the Sept issue of the mens Journal of a handfull of El Mirage racers and vehicles with the racers sporting $5,000 leather jackets and other cool threads!

Who knew racers were fashionable!

Oh and apparently according to one racer I am dead after my crash at Speedweek 2008!

Yeah, Jason -- May you rest in peace.  We'll miss you -- so please bring some photos with you next time you're on the Salt so we can get some posthumous autographs.

Jason, you're dead? So that's why I did not see you at BUB. I am really sorry to hear you say that. Can I have some of your 'Busa parts?

Wow really? I hope you and your family are enjoying the life insurance money!!!  And I know that wasn't you I was hanging out with at Speed Week. And those weren't the tell tale scars either! :-D

No life insurance here.  The money you leave behind just makes friends and family fight after you are gone!

Jokes on them, I took my loot with me!
