Import Alliance 2010 Pictures

This was at Import Alliance 2010 at the Nashville superspeedway this past july. It was a gathering of over 6000 japanese, korean, and european cars and probably more than 10,000 enthusiasts. ever since my first one, i've made the 1200 mile round trip drive every year. there were a bunch of really nice cars and some AWESOME skies that weekend. i think i shot over 1000 pictures over the course of the weekend, but these are my favorites i got with my sony dsc-f828 (saving up for 40d). i edited them a little while ago when i was newer to photoshop, so a few of them are a bit overedited for my current tastes.

This is a great show, lucky its only a 30 min drive to the speedway for me.

ugh, you're way too lucky. i have to drive 9+ hours, but its a fun drive with the rest of the people in the convoy and everyone has a walkie-talkie.
