All,

Ok, so I have some good news and some bad news, The good news is that I was
in perfect position for the crash of the #7 Miata from the last race
yesterday, the bad news is that I was shooting in manual Mode and was only
shooting at 1/60th of a second so the photos are way out of focus but just
to put you in my shoes...

I was about 20 yards west of the end of the photography well right before
the first turn of the east track. There was a group of 5 Spec Miatas in a
bunch and I watched them for about three laps when the following sequence
happened. I was so close that as the car slid past me I was even hit in the
head by a flying rock, the only place it wouldn't do any damage. Well take a
look and enjoy it was pretty cool being that close to the action even though
it did raise my blood pressure a bit.
