In Topeka last weekend. Sorry their site is so hard to navigate, best bet is to go to www.egleye.com, enter site, select "2009 Events", "ET Finals, 2009" under September, click the "enter" button, "Pro ET" at the top, scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, then count up five rows, on the right hand side.

Lifts the front more than I thought it did.

It's actually oxidized dark green with factory Berlinetta wheels.

I can't get to that site with this ISP, I'll check later. But, I didn't pay much attention to the box guys - too busy with my own stuff.

The site doesn't allow linking. If you follow my directions, you should get there without any special information entries.

By the way, after you click "ET Final, 2009" and the "Enter" button, there are 4 pics of the '57 on the first page that comes up (the "Awards" page). That was the final of the Sportsman Race of Champions - he was actually posting the pictures of the other guy (who won).

If I can ever figure out how to search the site, the pics of the Camaro are ETF09-1715, ETF09-0134, and ETF09-0919.

Re: Pic of the ugly duckling

I still can't access the pictures.

I go to www.egleye.com

I either click on 2009 near the middle of the page or 2009 Events along to top banner and it goes to this page and says to please enter your photographers ID to continue.

edit: OK, Firefox doesn't access it but IE does.

Ah.

I wondered about Firefox vs. IE, but they both work similarly for me.

I tried to email a link, but the link they give you in the email takes you to the "eagle" page. The email did say, "When asked for an event code, use: lodrs". But, I've never been asked for an "event code".

Really, really weird site. . .

Thanks. The '57 looks better the farther back you get from it. Doesn't help much with the Camaro.

Is Solomon's car a rail?
