As one of the great events here in the southwest, I always make a point of getting out to the Copperstate 1000 each year. I've written about this wonderful event in the past and this year didn't disappoint with the cars headed south for a run thought Tucson, Bisbee, etc. (Arizona) this week. There was one unfortunate incident with a Porsche Carrera running into a pickup truck (I feel sorry for the driver as the pickup cut him off) - I hope the organizers implement stricter traffic controls for next year.
Regardless, here's a few cars that caught my attention this year.
