That was one of the people helping run the event, Allison. She has a gallery up with a bunch of pictures, I'm not sure if you are in it.thats great! who took that pic oleg?
So in that photo, what happened is that I got the car sideways too early (there was more traction than I expected, so the car changed direction faster) and basically ended up going over the inside snowbank of the turn.
No, I wasn't looking at the camera, I was looking as to where I needed to go (which was the finish line right around the photographer).
