It was waaaaay hot. Friday night it poured hard w/ rain so the next day it was humid, but it was a lot cooler than the day before. Weirdest weather we've been having this past week. I'm glad it is almost over.

Thanks for looking!!

JD drivers/instructors are all down to Earth, really cool people, I still find it surreal to see people we know right there on alongside the seasoned drivers at FD. Hope you enjoyed the photos!

I was shooting for a local publication therefore acquired media access. Apply for a media credentials at least 2 weeks ahead of time, you should be able to acquire your own. If you were shooting there from the bleachers or wherever, don't think the box area in the middle of the track was a great spot, it wasn't. The barriers were always in the way. There was a great spot near the parking lot at the southwest side of the track where you can shoot pretty much just a few feet from the designated media area where there's no fences in the way.

I use Canon lenses and bodies. Thanks for viewing and asking!

Yahi was kinda joking if you look carefully you can see my knee in the bottom left of the picture. I was putting on driftfoto.com stickers for larry chen.

Nice pictures! I was there too on that weekend. Does anyone know why Ken Gushi (Scion tc) got 0 point for being hit by a car at the back? Am I mistaken?

Yeah I believe it is painted white, can't be so sure though, Bomac painted his white, I figured Henry did too. Looked new though, then again fresh paint always looks new, haha.

Brian- hah! nice avatar! haha..

Thanks again for viewing and commenting.

Hope you all enjoyed em' and enjoyed the event.

What kind of qualification / experience do you need to get media access?

Not any I don't think. There were amateurs and professionals alike around.
In their standpoint its good free publicity so they have nothing to lose by allowing you to have media credentials. So shoot away!
