Support races for the BRDC World Sportscars 1000km race included a race for the Atlantic Computers Historic GT Championship, and David Franklin’s McLaren M6B is readied for the event. Bristolian David started racing in 1965 driving a bog-standard 875cc Hillman Imp in a motor club hill climb. In 1978 he won the RAC British Hill Climb Championship and the RAC British Sprint Championship driving a March 772-BMW Formula 2 car, the first and only time that a driver has won both titles in the same year. In 1981 David bought this stunning ex-Can Am McLaren M6B, chassis number 50-17 powered by a 5-litre V8 engine. In 1985 he won the HSCC Historic GT Championship and then 1986, the British GT Championship. With the McLaren now fitted with a small block 6.3-litre Chevrolet engine David went on to win the 1987 Steigenberger European SuperSports Championship, but in 1988 he just lost out winning back-to-back titles to Martin Bolsover by half-a-point!

This is a beat-up, second generation Camaro in Leschi with no tabs, my youngest and I spotted it on a long walk after school. When I was a kid, I went through a phase where I sketched a lot of 1980s era IROC Z28s, haha! However, in my increasingly advanced age, I've yet to own a "cool" car or even a pickup truck.

This week, my oldest started driver's training, five weeks of classes. We also applied online for his learner's permit, which I had no idea was a thing. Believe it or not, any random fifteen year old in Seattle can operate an automobile with the simple mouse-click of an icon. This seems like more than a minor insanity, to me!
It's not that I don't think my son's ready to at least start practicing. I'm confident he'll ultimately grow into a careful, considerate driver. He's very smart, mature and polite for his age. Still, you always worry a little about executive function when it comes to teenagers. We live in a neighborhood with some of the steepest streets in the city and there are no stop signs at a lot of intersections. I figure, if he can drive competently here, he'll be fine. I'm not sure he's going to experience the same thrill of independence or freedom that I did, when I earned my automobile license. I grew up in the boondocks, miles from anywhere, while he already has the luxury of taking the bus or train by himself. We live in the middle of town, he rides Metro home from school. Some days, he eschews the bus ride for a long walk.
He drove us to his school, this morning. He did quite well. I was reminded of my early teens when I'd drive my dad around on dirt roads, in the Monte Carlo, while he sat in the front passenger seat, sometimes he'd be nursing a beer while I crept along at ten miles per hour. Needless to say, I will not be having a beer while I take my son out for driving practice. There's something about letting one of your babies get behind the steering wheel that reminds you how potentially dangerous or lethal the act of operating a motor vehicle is: To pedestrians, bicyclists or the occupants of said vehicles.
A rather nice and well laid out drivers cab layout for Shetlands oldest but best ever bus! Can see how a typical B10BLE layout like this makes a B10BLE a nice, smooth and comfortable drive for all drivers and passengers.
Note the 2 red open door button combination in between the heating button and heating system. Not sure if it this is a common feature on Volvo B10BLEs but if you press one of them then it opens only one door separately with the other one being shut where passengers only get on the bus by going through just one door. It is sometimes used depending on the driver's choice, however drivers (who don't get to drive the bus often or who have never driven it before) find it confusing to work with some drivers or passengers even thinking the doors are defective. If you press both buttons at the same time then both the doors will open at the same time but some drivers also tend to press either one of the buttons first then the next. However the usual one green and one red button combination can be seen near the heating system controls and the broms brake which operates the normal controls of both opening & closing the doors but most drivers use the 2 red buttons instead as the red button to open both of the doors takes about 5 seconds for the doors to open however both doors will close if you press the green button that closes the doors. Pictures of the bus open with only one door can be found through my photostream but here is one:

EPS 37601 + 37603 (5X11 1048 Dollands Moor - North Pole) dragging hauling a full set Eurostar with power cars 3312 + 3311 approaching Paddock Wood, these trips were for route refresher and traction knowledge for the EPS drivers just in case a Eurostar broke down and needed dragging. 21.06.06
Not bad, definitely well worth! I like these, because in my opinion they have nice design. On the rear missing one clip and two are damaged. The owner of car wasn´t a good driver...

Tojeiro Jaguar Sportsracer (1957) Engine 3800cc S6 DOC
Race Number 11 Tom McWhirter
Registration Number 76 NO
Tojeiro built four Tojeiro Jaguars for Ecurrie Ecosse also two Ecurie Ecosse Tojeiros in the shape of EE1 and EE2
EE1 was famous destroyed during the 1959 Tourist Trophy race at Goodwood, when it crashed at Woodcote Corner, with American driver Masten Gregory standing up on the seat and leaping out just before impact into the bank an scape that almost certainally saved his life. After the crash the wreckage returned to Ecosse headquarters in Edinburgh were it remained for many years. Eventually rebuilt by Ken Nicholls and purchased by Tom McWhirter and after chassis strengthening by Crosthwaite and Gardiner in the 1990's, it now resided in McWhirters Moray Motor Museum.
Of the four Tojeiro Jaguars two used the registration number 7 GNO at some time, the second of these cars now registered 76 NO was possibly also rebuilt in 1990, either way that is when it aquired its current registration. This car is now raced regularly by both Tom and his son and when not racing also resides at the Moray Motor Museum .

Taxi Driver taking a rest from behind the wheel. Something about his demeanor caught my eye. He seemed defeated. I'm here to tell him, it's alright.

Class 31 number 31235 at Crewe station on 13th October, 1988. Judging by the relaxed position of the driver you would hope that the locomotive was stationary at the time.
Having been withdrawn in May, 2000 this locomotive is now in preservation at the Dean Forest Railway.
Seen on the occasion of the Hants & Dorset Running Day at Poole in April 1989 was Wilts & Dorset driver training bus Bristol Lodekka FLF6G / ECW 9204 EMR294D.
Previously a Hants & Dorset bus, it was one of a few of the EMR-D batch to see out their lives as driver trainers, namely 288 (9201), 292 (9203), 294 (9204), 295 (9206) and 296 (9205).
My first attempt at setting up for a shoot. There are more in my album if you wish to have a look...JK
This diesel train driver was waiting while a problem further up the line was cleared.
He leaned out the window to take a look up the tracks and I grabbed this shot.
The Aspen Institute Economic Opportunities Program and Latinos and Society Program hosted a joint discussion, "Drivers of Opportunity: How Will Latinos Shape the Future of the American Dream?” on February 21, 2018. Panelists at the event — including Office of Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf’s Jose Corona, University of Texas Rio Grande Valley’s Marie Mora, Nation Waste, Inc.’s Maria Rios, The Workers Lab’s Carmen Rojas, and Marketplace’s Kimberly Adams — discussed how we can secure economic stability and mobility for Latino workers, families, and communities. The event was part of the Economic Opportunities Program’s Working in America series and the Latinos and Society Program’s Latino Economic Advancement series.

While at the salt desert to the border of Pakistan, we wanted to take a stroll to get some pictures and get a feeling of walking on the semi-dry salt lake. Our camel driver/guide took his camels for a stroll as well, giving me an excellent opportunity to capture them from a distance with a clean background. The salt lake was dry on the surface, but still held a few centimeters of water once the dried salt cover broke. Since I was walking in sandals, I cut myself over and over again, instantly filling the small cuts with salt. Needless to say, it was rather painful. That being said, though, I would easily do it again, albeit with a different pair of footwear.
