Photo: last glimpse of Camaro at Turn 9

Seven and Eight are kind of non-turns in
the Vega. Turn 8 (upcoming here) is a turn,
but does not require lifting off. It may be
that one of the people you see at the left
of the picture is the guy who took the
photo of the wagon in Turn 8. (Click photo).
The location of that shot is just ahead.

Farther along in Turn 9 we can see one
of the pylons that displayed car and position
for fans in the East end of the stands and
infield. This is still wide-open throttle
country for a Vega.

Photo: Looks like about Turn 17

I believe the previous picture is the
entrance to Turn 10. I left out the 10-
11-12 complex. Maybe I can find a way
to get it back in here. This is turn 17.

Photo: the Turn 9 apex and main grandstand


Bending into Turn 9 we can see the massive
main grandstand at the South side of the
front straight. There was a plan to extend
it between oval Turns 4 and 1 as the need
arose. Guess what? The long mounds of earth
may still be there, but no seats, I bet.

Photo: May be the entrance to Turn 10

Beginning to spy what looks like a
right-hand turn up ahead, and well
beyond that, the wall outside oval
Turn Two, I think. The course was
known as featureless and difficult.

Photo: Apex of Turn 18 is in view

That apex coming up at the left
is Turn 18, where we have seen the
coupe in a more-or-less head-on
view. (Click photo)
