Thanks Zandor, that was a very cool assignment! I was in Martinsville VA shooting the race for the mag, they crashed the car but needed it to race the following weekend in pheonix. Since I lived only about 20 miles from Roush racing in NC, I was asked by peepee Bergren if I could be back to NC and at the shop before they unloaded the car off the truck in the morning, so of course I said yes. I got there about 6:30 am, met with Frank Stoddard and began shooting as they unloaded the car. I got to spend most of the week out at the shop taking pics as they rebuilt the car to take to the next race. All the guys in the shop were very cool, showed me to there drink cooler, told me make myself at home. Only stipulation was Frank had to preview all the pics prior to me submitting them to the mag, didn't want any secerets getting out. I also got to meet Jeff, but only briefly.

It was definately one of my best experiences while shooting motorsports. Thanks a lot man for reminding me how much I miss it! LOL

Thanks for the compliments guys! Unfortunately I am no longer shooting the Nascar curcuit, due to several reasons. But I consider myself lucky to have have had the opportunity to do it for the years that I did. I do miss it quite a bit though, it was a very cool gig.

What a cool gig, I can imagine it was hard work but also a very fun job.

Ever try applying for Playboy? As a photographer of course. LOL
