I
went to Old Bridge Township Raceway Park on Friday night,
October 12th to check out the qualifying sessions for
the Shakedown Nationals. Man, it was cold, but the track
seemed like it was holding some fast cars. The photos
I'm presenting here are sort of an experiment, trying
to figure out what settings my new camera likes for shooting
action at night. As you'll see I'm not there yet, but
I figured I'd still share what I got, just in case you
were there. These are just random shots I took over the
night.

One
of the bikes had an oil leak, and the starting line crew
was right on top of it, shutting the bike off before it
could make a pass. If they didn't and the bike had made
the pass, it could have had a tragic ending. Hopefully the
rider thanked them. |
Speaking
of bikes, look who it is: none other than NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycle
champ Eddie Krawiec coming back to Etown to manage the track
prep. From what I saw the track was killer, despite the 45
degree air temperature. |
