I remember last year’s SLB, Narvaez Racing brought out three cars and I remember thinking to myself….
I remember the last time I didn’t get a chance to shoot this car, so I made sure I got a few shots in this time around. It was great to see this Bulletproof Auto supported Nismo GTR out at Buttonwillow again. The Amor Autosport/Albrecht Racing Impreza RS rounds out the top three Subarus of the day with a 01:55.061 in Limited AWD class. She managed to finish 2nd in class for the day with a 01:54.658. I’ve also been told that some cosmetic changes might be on the way, so I’m pretty stoked to see it if it does come to fruition.Īnother familiar Subaru present from round 3 was Sally’s 07 WRX that’s also from Snail Performance and sporting pretty much the same livery as Markos. The car is also currently running a set of Advan RS-DF wheels as compared to its previous mismatched Advan GT/Volk ZE40 set.Ī couple more shots of Markos as he was entering pit lanes… I believe the car had a couple of minor issues during the day, but he still finished first in class for the day with a best time of 01:49.952. I think I took the most photos of this car because I just loved the way the red looks on camera. One of the cars that I’ve been eager to see was Snail Performance Markos’ 06 WRX which has been revamped with a new livery since the last time I saw it. Either way, there were still some notable entrants and some usual suspects that made for some good photo opportunities.

First thing I noticed when we got there was a smaller grid size than other Pro Am events I’ve been to, but that’s pretty much a given for an event held in the heat of the Central Valley this time of year. Anyways, short story aside, we got down there right around the start of the first session, so we were pretty early by our standards and I got to shooting right away. Once again, as with pretty much all events at Buttonwillow, my good friend Clint was able to accompany me on this trip down to middle-of-nowhere California… this time though, we had extra company in my girlfriend as we were also visiting my family out in Fresno. nevertheless, I was pretty motivated to be out at Buttonwillow again after deciding to skip round 2 at Willow Springs since it was just a bit too far away. Actually, “refreshing” is probably bad word choice because it was anything but refreshing out there in triple digit weather…. I can’t believe it’s been almost half a year since I’ve covered a time attack event, but it was absolutely refreshing to be out at Buttonwillow again for round 3 of the GTA Pro Am series.
