The gallery is up! Didn’t get as many as I wanted before I lost the batteries but I managed to get 100+ shots off on Saturday between duties. [http://www.autoxphotos.com/gallery.asp?categoryid=415](http://www.autoxphotos.com/gallery.asp?categoryid=415) My biggest problem was for most of these shots I was standing on the outside of a corner. And not all of these guys take the “racing line” so you’d have the zoom set for a car near the apex and instead the would be kissing the hay bales right in front of you, like this guy. I should have just zoomed right in on his face. ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20031%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20031%2Ejpg) But I got some good money shots out of the deal. I think my best was this red Lotus I caught mid drift. ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20032%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20032%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20024%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20024%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20030%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20030%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20037%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20037%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20075%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20075%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20071%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20071%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20106%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20106%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20023%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20023%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20004%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20004%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20077%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20077%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20061%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20061%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20064%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20064%2Ejpg) Check out the front wheel! ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20054%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20054%2Ejpg) Hot e-brake lever action! ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20089%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20089%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20097%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20097%2Ejpg) ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20092%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20092%2Ejpg) Entrance to the pit area for those who didn’t make it over. ![http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20035%2Ejpg](http://www.autoxphotos.com/thumb.asp?size=640&path=gallery%2FPVGP%2F2008%2FSaturday%20%2D%20ChrisC%2FPVGP08%20035%2Ejpg) Coarse Crew truck racing.

I’m assuming he carries a bag, too. Well his son was helping him this year, but even his son was carrying like 1 or 2 cameras. Whats really funny is the whole time we are sitting there chatting, he’ll stop mid conversation and snap a car as it drives by, then pick up right where he left off haha. Most years he actually races a older Porsche, he skipped this year just to take more photos. But you would see his Porsche all over Schenely during race weekend, he would show up at various stations to take pictures then he would be off again. His gallery should be up in a few days I’ll post it here, definitely worth checking out. ---
