another batch...

Bryan Epps of BME Photography was working some great new angles this weekend with remote cameras, as shown in the last pic in this set. Make sure you stop by the photo trailer at the next event to see if he has new shots for you as well!

Nice pics Michael, just think if you were to get one of those remote cameras you could take pictures of yourself instead of everyone else, lol! Ok maybe that might be a little too much action. Oh yeah thanks for the decals they look great.

nice pictures. would like to get the season started, but thats just too far for me to come.

Thanks. These pics were taken with the new phone I got in November. Took awhile to get the timing down, as it's slow to focus and capture a moving car. I was "leaving on the 2nd bulb" and then panning with the cars with my fingers crossed. You never knew what you were going to get! I was hoping that the new phone would actually handle posting direct to the forum, but no dice, and I had so many that I didn't get around to e-mailing to Kenny for posting. Kept pretty busy between rounds.

Heard the event was up 14%.

Look at NHRA Div. 2 LODRS @ Bradenton qualifying from last year... only 9 Super Stockers from FL, 3 GA, 3 AL (15 cars from 3 states). Stockers: 16 FL, 10 GA, 1 AL (27 cars from 3 states)... These races live on travelers. Scheduling and ever-rising fuel prices are going to hamper growth. Fact is, there are only so many cars in that region that are ready, willing, and able that early in the year and with that many back-to-back-to-back weekends on the schedule. People are going to pick and choose races.
