So, some good news. Me and Sarah photographed the Nostalgia drags at Mo-Kan Dragway on Saturday last weekend. Had alot of fun, Sunday, last minute we decided to go out to the Monett Motor Speedway and take the cameras since it was an afternoon race. Shot photos from atop the grandstands, and got a phone call from the track owner yesterday afternoon offering us a job as the Official Track Photographers. So Sunday afternoons until the first of June and Friday evenings until September we'll be shooting at the local speedway. I honestly never thought people would like our photos as much as they do.


Sorry about all the photos, pick my favorites from both events. (The speedway photos look grainy, it was very dusty, and from where we were sitting to turn 3 where i was shooting at was over 400ft away.)

some are spot on, a couple need cropping, and maybe a little color balance on them. But cool action shots.

I'm 30 so I just qualify for another 7 months. My personal struggle in life is just trying to save up enough cash to get the heck out of California. Making 11$ an hour and getting 116$ jacked for taxes. Because apparently I'm rich as all get out to the state of California. Even if its 50 cents over min wage. I've been blocked by any and all attempts by my state to get cheaper health care witch I have non. They want 3-500$ a month for that. Have glasses that are 4 years out of prescription and broken. 18 cent gas hike and a higher registration fee. I'm back to paying premium gas price after his ditching the Audi for the Camaro.

515$ in tires because of the bad roads out here nails, potholes, bad enough having to chase off people who steal packages. And oh gods the freaking homeless problem in Anaheim ca is bs we cetch them jumping our fence at night trying to take stuff in the open like our hose ir garden tools. Working security I can say 90% of these people I run in to are on meth or other hard drugs. 3 times a week I have 2-3 hours of paper work because I have to call for EMT because one of these tires OD's on some hard drug on property. Even sicker 3 weeks in a row we found these drug addicts doing coke off the baby changing station....its expensive and falling apart here

Never had an opportunity to shoot a dirt track before. Shooting from hundreds of feet away, it's hard to catch them running 75-100+mph with the zoom in lol I agree with the cropping, and some are semi-blurry.

keep shooting, you will get the better and better. You will learn where you need to be for specific types of shots.

What equipment you using to shoot with?
