Much to my surprise I don't have any shots that I've taken of Mutt the Race Truck on the track as I'm the one behind the wheel. These are pictures of shots taken by David Whalen, our track photographer. He's excellent - notice that he's caught the action with Mutt at something like 125MPH in the shots shown. Sorry for the light strike on the first pic - it's in a frame behind glass and it reflected a bit. The second shot is us JUST coming across the finish line - David shoots from a stand and therefore can get nifty shots like this. Also note the record certificate with a top speed of 129.6083. Is this the fastest documented OM617 in North America? I don't really know that but he might be.

Next time we're at the track I'll try to get someone to take a shot from the rear as I leave the starting line. Then you can see the Mercedes Tri-Star in the middle of an otherwise stock S-10 tailgate.

EDIT: I found a slightly better on-track pic taken at the finish line. A bit grainier than the pro shots but at least not a picture of a picture. See below.
