It's been three months since the last time I was out at one of the autocross events thanks to a broken car a broken computer and moving in the middle of the summer so it was a nice break to get out to another event this last weekend. It was a today event but because I had to fix my car (headlights went out) and my spotter was sick we only went to the event on Saturday. Of course that day was cut short as well.
Because of miss-communication my ride and spotter ended up needing to leave early to help one of our friends move but I was able to photograph and video just about every car that was there on Saturday at least once during the event. And what an event. It was like the cones had procreated like wild bunnies as there were just a huge horde of cones out on the Expo Center's large parking lot. More than I've ever seen out there before. So it was a large course with some nice corners which made for a fast course and some potential for spin outs which happened quite often in the morning session while everyone was getting familiar with the course. Although it seemed like I was always filming the wrong car when that happened.
It was nice to get out there and do some filming and photographing work even though out of the some 200+ pictures I took there was about 80 that looked any good. You can find them here at flickr of course and when I get my videos uploaded tonight I'll update this blog with a link to the videos as well. What's good is that in two weeks time we'll be heading out to Hailey ID for a new event on a small airport parking lot with no light poles no drainage bumps and just a nicely paved wide open space to have a huge track and I'll be out there to get it all on film and video. So I'm really looking forward to that event.
Videos are now live on youtube total of 49 vids.
