TMK Photography pics

I saw a trailer for the track photographer which is JB's Extreme Photos so you should check out their site and patronize the track photographer, get something of your car up on that wall!

My take on the day --

I could not stay long, and I arrived late because I didn't get out of work til 7am Saturday morning.. The weather looked like crap in the morning but it sure did take a turn for the better! Turned out partly cloudy but the sun did come out later in the day. Unfortunately I had to leave early too :( so coverage on my end kind of sucked.. good thing Chad was on point with the writeup and you guys can go see vids on Your Way Network.

I do love Cecil tho.. the fans can really get up close and that strip definitely has a unique feel to it -- all about gettin down to business and racing ! It was good to get back there, I haven't been there in quite a while. A big thanks to Dave @ Finish Line Performance for setting me up with access, and Matt @ Cecil for allowing us starting line access. Much appreciated !

As usual please give me some feedback on the pictures.. if you like them, if you think they suck, if you want to see more of one type of pic than the other, etc...

my favorites of the day

Ok the link for JB's Extreme Photos goes to a busted web site :(

If anyone has info on the track photographer please go ahead and post it. Also there were a few other guys taking pics at the line too, if people have links to their pics please post them.. I only got a few because I wasn't there for too long
