    Who was taking pictures during the races?

    Not sure if it was the same guy who usually does the pictures for Penguin, but this was my first race weekend so I'm not sure if there's always the same guy or what.

    Wondering how we get in touch with him for the pics...If I'm going to get distracted by a photographer at full lean, I might as well get the pics out of it. Just sayin...

    Looking at him? I was staring him down because he wouldn't wave back.

    JK - it was hard to miss a guy in a blaze orange vest with a big telephoto lens. I tried to minimize my focus on him and just move on to my next reference points, but I'd be lying if I told you he didn't take up at least 2 cents of my $10 worth of concentration...

    Wow...$25 each for a single digital image? I'm used to getting a CD of every shot for a day for $50....

    I don't suppose they're any cheaper if you get them the day of or anything like that, huh?

    Just buy. The guy is out there in the hot sun all day so you can have an awesome profile pic.

    If he got some of the pictures I think he got of me going dragging knee on my motard then it's not a question of if I'm buying but what / how many.

    I'm all about making it worth his while to stand out in the sun, but it would be like $500 for the # of pics I'm used to getting...

    You could get the CD and a print or 2. Call and see if they have bulk pricing for multiple prints. Buy the CD and take it to a local printer. See? Lots of options.

    Let me know, I'll even ride it for you next time.

    John Owens does pics for Penguin, Tony's, and Fistails track days but I don't know if he does pics for the races. http://owenstrackdayphotos.com

    the only place I seem to ever notice Arcy is in T6 on a warm up lap or in T9, easy to catch there because he just comes right into your view as you round the corner.

    You could always take pictures of yourself...... yourself

    Dunno how good of a shot you're gonna get with a selfie, though.

    lol

    Okay, who's got a link to that video of the guy on the scooter doing circles in the middle of the road with a gopro camera on a poll. That was rad.
