some pics for Great American Race on 7/6/2007

I did shoot too many bearing I was sick and there were too many people. So background is something I couldn't get clean. Anyway, seeing so many classic cars first time is quite exciting. I would shoot more while they were in grapevine, but I was sick badly by then

Nice pictures, turned out better then mine.

Talked to the gentleman in the last picture and he isn't on TPF, had a 5D + 16-35. Talked to another gentleman with an FTb.

I still have not processed mine I was walking around with my D80 and 28-75. I hope to share some pics this weekend after I move.

A V-12 Air cooled Gasoline engine from a Tank!...No Joke!!!
Note the fins on the cylinders Sorry for the poor comp! I held the camera down and simply aimed it up! And this is what I got!

Inside of the The Cockpit! The nice lady cleaned it out just so I could get this picture!

Yeah everything about that truck was huge. Here's a couple of mine.

Well.....if I had only known I would've introduced myself. I had stopped by after photographing Grapevine lake's floodedness for a few hours and I didn't stay long after being out in the sun.
