actually, i would guess that the picture was taken right after teh sharp left after you get done with the pivot. b/c the next car is till waiting at the start. if it was the slalom, the next car would be on it's way already. not to mention that the blue mustang in the picture is pointed pretty straight. in a slalom, you're never ever have teh wheels pointed straight for longer than 1 nanosecond.

you know once you take the pivot cone and you have to slow down a little to that eh sharp dip left and then sharp right through the bus - stop. well, i think this picture was taken just before the mustang driver began turing right for the bustop.

i was at station 4, i saw the cars comming from that point! i was never behind them untill the slalom. also ross(car in the background) is well past the start. notice the direction cones laying down. those were not used at the start finish. you are right about the wheels being straight! my *best guess* was the slalom, thats where i took almost all my pics!
see ya tomarrow morn at godfathers.
