Rhys Milen in the Red Bull Solstice won Formula D Atlanta today, Ryan Tureck in the Gardella Solstice took third. The RMR Pontiac GTO took forth, 3 out of 4 top spots were Pontiac's and there were only 3 in the event. Way to go Solstice Teams! I shot over 4000 pictures




Look closely Rhys has a wrench in his hand, they had a fuel line leak and he was pulling the bad line in the staging area just after he qualified first amoung the unseeded drivers.

That is great. Let's hope he keeps his four tires on the ground from now on and no more dumb carnival tricks that almost killed him--leave that to the kids with nothing to lose.

They film the entire season and then air them in the off season on SPEED. I believe there is a website where you can watch it streaming live though. I will look into that.
