Another thrilling finish to the Sprint car A-main tonite, a new winner in the Thunder car division, and a quickly run program due to threat of rain made it another great night to be trackside, instead of at home watching the tube.

Heres a couple shot without the benefit of flash, as I really don't like the flash effect that much.

Awesome shots!!!


Are those 410's or 360's?
The track lighting must be decent.....

They are 360 sprints on the regular card and only when the WoO show up is anything bigger run there.

I finally figured out how to get by without the darned flash and let the cars look like they aren't parked.

It is Musco lighting there, and there are more lights installed that are being wired in.

Yup and at only ISO 500 too, cause anything over that drives me batty with the noise.

Yes I'll be there every night they run this season including all World of Outlaws dates.

I am counting the days till the greatest show on dirt hits town.

Yes, these are great. The reason you don't want to use a flash is it will freeze the motion.
