John I love the BP shot. Great light!

Question for shooting at Elkhart Lake, no vantage point (credentials or not) at the final corner with a long zoom shooting them go up that crazy hill on the front straight?

If you're asking is there a shot, the answer is yes.... but it's really not very interesting. IMO.

Excellent work as always, John. I especially like the shot of Bonilla in the B-K Lola.

Can't wait for Mosport!

very nice as usual. Did you use a nd filter or cp when shooting the day shots to get those great colors and slower shutter speeds?
