I just wanted to share some images taken by professional photographers that are located at strategic points along the route. Go to their web site, find your car and for a small fee, download your pics! Pushed the Crossfire hard during the trip and had it up to 180km/h a number of times.

Yep, in hindsight extremely lucky. You get caught up in the moment. You are focused and the adrenaline is high...the car never seizes to amaze me.
