    Awesome show again this year. Got a little shock finding such a line of folks trying to get in. I guess the word is out. Had fun shooting the action on the strip this year. Got a nice sunburn cause I'm stupid, and then met a nice trooper on my way home at 1:00am, I didn't think 73 in a 60 was that fast. :D Oh well he was only doing his job. Anyway how about some pics. Here is what I have edited and uploaded so far.

    Thanks guys I love taking these pics one of these days I'll get a car together, maybe I'm doing what I'm supposed to be staying safley behind the camera. LOL

    Also met a very cool dude named Rooty and his little track roadster. I got to talk to him for about 30-45 minutes during the day. Loved his car, it gave me some big time inspiration for that T body that I have standing in the corner of the shop.

    Thanks for the compliments guys I am an amateur a best. I love taking the pics, I just learned how to take the motion shots this past week believe it or not. The only tinkering with these was with the size. Think I can get a press pass next year Ryan? :D I'd love to have had access to trackside little further down. I have more pics I'll try to post up today as I have time to work on them.

    Lippy was that you we were talking too when the sun went down and the gentelmen that had a few too many beers was talking about his flock of sheep? LOL

    Oh and Jeff we have God to thank for the lighting, was it a beautiful day/ evening or what?
     
  22. Very well done, made my morning.
    Thanks
     
  23. I was there and your photos are like being there again. Thanks a lot.
    Later,
    Dick

    Excellent photos, makes me want to go, for sure Can't wait to see what else you've got. If these shots alone were the essence of the event, I'd say it was a success.
