Event Coverage CHRR 2010 pics from the K rail

Doug (Mazooma1) talked me into posting these.

This is the 1st batch I downloaded. I'm sifting through thousands of images I took to come up w/ some interesting pics & angles.
3 days of drag racing. We arrives at about 9am Friday- stayed to about 2pm Sunday. Most of the shots are from the rail or behind the starting line. There's a couple from the top of grandstands about 3/4 track.
I prefer the starting line.

Enjoy!

 

Steve,

Awsome pics................im glad Doug persuaded you to post............can't wait for the rest,

Bitchin man! Dig the wheelie-poppin' and wrinkled tires. Great angles.

 

Cool!!

 

Now comes the push start cacklefest & I'm struggling w/ one lense & one body. Don't ask!

Our friend Tommy Schiffilea's car- running 7.0 Pro
















This car was doing near full track burn-outs which a few weren't happy with.

 

Don wanted her pic so I asked her if we could shoot a quick pic. She asked where I wanted her. Don said on his lap.
Bastard.
















































oops








That's it for tonight. I'll try & load some more tomorrow night.

 

Outstanding pics Steve. The one of Don and Roland is a classic.

 

Awesome photography, thanks for taking time to share. This photo is my favorite one it shows drag racing is for all ages. The kid to the right of Roland Leong is Matt Buynum, the teenage wonder boy who works his butt off on Jason Rupert's nostalgia funny car.



Also this is a bitchin' shot of Jason's car on it's 5.80 pass from Saturday.

 

Impressive wheelie shots.

 

Great pics. Thanks for taking the time to post all these pics of my favorite race of the year.

thats the way the funnies looked in the mid-70's...nothing even close to NASCAR rubbish

 

Holy Smoke!! What a bevy of super build racers, and a bunch of the sports big names, wish I could have been at that event. Your pix are really excellent, your post is greatly appreciated. !Sololobo~

 

Wow....thanks for posting

Steve
You did good

 

Those were some really great pics. Were you part of the media there? Or do you really have that good of a zoom. Some look so close, like you were right next to the cars. Mind telling us what hardware you are using to take such wonderful pictures.
