For the next track day… can’t someone drive their car somewhere onto the grass to get closer shots of the cars?

Or is that a no no?

Say someone just happened to mess up a turn, and just happened to slide out onto the grass… and while crossing the grass to return to the pit the car just happened to die… so this someone thought hey, ill take some pics…

Then once this someone is done shooting, the car just happens to fire back up…

Catch my drift?

Anyone who wants to do any shots on the field at apexs or anywhere should follow an experienced photographer on, one who knows the track well. They can show you good spots that offer safety and angle. K.Saun from JDMR would know of some good spots if he ever decided to return to drift events.

LOVE my pitbikes!!! Does it all!!!

(me and my buddies bikes messin around. you can do aything with em. I’ll try to bring one out next trackday for shits and giggles, willing to teach people to operate a motorcycle as well!!! I’ll bring the 5 speed clutch one)
