Photos from 2010 Grand Prix of Long Beach weekend

It was a great weekend for StopTech down at the 2010 Long Beach Grand Prix as the company's CEO, Dino Cresentinti turned in a stellar driving performance that landed him on top of the SCCA 2010 GT Driver Championship standings.  Here are some behind the scenes shots from the festival of racing courtesy of Danger Dave...

This was a weekend for true racing fans


The weekend kicked off with a little daredevil action in the skies.


Skateboarding legend Tony Hawk prepares for the Celebrity/Pro race featuring identical StopTech-equipped Toyota Scions for all drivers.


StopTech does not make brakes for Indy Cars but they were still on the track.


The pacecars for the Indy races, including this nifty Lexus, sported StopTech brakes...

...so did the Indy rescue vehicles. These cars and trucks need to whip around the streets of Long Beach at near race speeds. 

Dino gives the thumbs up before heading out to the track for the SCCA race after winning the prior round in March...


...he does not come back empty handed!
