The guy never let off the throttle - amazing!

Sorry I didn't respond earlier - we were out of town for a few days - at my sons Navy graduation in Chicago.

I saw you out there, but you had just driven off. I thought you and Fred might have entered a vehicle.

I haven't done any off road stuff since the last Hammer race.

Ah yes, the Great Lakes Naval Training Center...aka "Great Mistakes" training center. LOL. I know it well.

Nikon P600.

The shots aren't as clear as I would like - they have the crowd barriers so far away from the track now - shooting at 100ft to 100 yards at speeding vehicles. Shutter speeds were 1000 to 1200th sec. so they're usable.

Maybe next year I'll get a photo pass.

We were in North Chicago during the race - maybe next year.

Nikon P600.

The shots aren't as clear as I would like - they have the crown barriers so far away from the track now - shooting at 100ft to 100 yards at speeding vehicles. Shutter seeds were 1000 to 1200th sec. so they're usable.

Maybe next year I'll get a photo pass.

Wow, that Nikon has a 60x zoom (24mm to 1440mm equivalent). Hard too believe ANYTHING would be too far away. Sounds like you need a tripod or monopod for stability.
