We are home! Whew... what a trip! All went very smoothly. Had a lovely time hang'n with Kpotter and TommyT-bone. Also saw CadillacTech and his wife, along with one of the newest guru's, rudyarias. I have known Rudy at the Corral for a couple of years now.

The races were as great as always and can't wait to watch the stream online to see what actually happened. Being there is awesome, but you simply don't get to see much of the race nor can you get a real sense of rhythm; the experience is very fragmented. I have tried recording it in the past, but with little success.

The biggest news: I got published! There is segment in the program called "Sebring Memories". Last summer, they sent out an email blast to try and get folks to send in their memories of Sebring and such. Apparently, mine made the cut! I will scan it in later.

Pictures will need to be uploaded and will be shortly. Right now, I am STARVING for some odd reason.

If some of the pics look hot, it's because I was working with a new lens, with manual shutter... so I boo-boo'd a couple of times. Sorry.

Your lovely wife in photo 36, I presume.
Is the camera shy TommyT-Bone in there somewhere?
Hmmm.

Actually, no... he went off in his own direction, so I didn't get any of him.

And yes, #36 is the famous bastet44.

Great pics, Andy! Looks like it would have been a blast. I hope to make that trip next year, if all goes well.

In the meantime, hopefully Trae and I can post some interesting pics next week. We are going to Barber Motorsports Park this weekend for the Rolex Grand-Am and Izod Indy races. We should get some good pics of the Corvette DP cars, and maybe the Whelen Corvette GT car.

#68 is the famous Lance Miller Corvette.

#84 was a test shot for lighting, and I really liked the way it came out. The sun was setting and the contrasts were stunning. Figure about 7pm when that was shot. All of these race shots were taken near the infield walkover, between the esses and the hairpin. This area is called "Big Bend." It's a very fast sweeper; no letting off here. I got most of the cars during a full course yellow.

The last pic is of the infield walk over. It's a bitch to capture... but I did like this final result.

Great pics, Andy. Glad you had the photo of Doug Fehan holding up the C6R piece since we bought it and I forgot to get any pictures.

Here is a link to our pictures at Sebring:
