The link on the actual site doesnt work (honestly none of them work) Something broke during the upload)

I was anxious to see some of the pics (with all the spins/off's) ha ha

OK,

I found it through another link on the website.

Question for you:

How do I go about "making sure" that more than one picture of a car is taken during an event. Do I need to *promise* to buy some of the pics from you?

I see several cars with 39 pics.. and some with 1? I just want to understand how you determine "who" gets pics taken and who doesnt?

I use the photo's to see what the car is doing on the course if I'm not getting good feedback from the driver. It helps me coach and do car setup.

This is the 3rd or 4th event with cars I have ran and no pics or 1 pic taken.

I have no issue paying. I just need to know what the "official" procedure is.

Brad, as far as I know these guys are not the "official" photographer of the club. But I suspect that you can find them during the event, or even send an email prior to the event and ask them to take lots of pics of a specific car.

BTW, not sure what problem you had, but I was able to click the link above and get to their site no problem.

The URL for the site works fine.

On his site. The very first screen showing the "June" date doesnt link to the pics. No big deal, you just have to drill down through another path.

Yep. I'm new. I dont know who the picture takers are. I know Greg kicks *** for PCA! I just want to understand what I need to do for some more shots.

Maybe it is something that can be done during the drivers meeting (annouce the photographers)

Greg:

Fantastic photo work covering my spin at Sunset and, fortunately, my recovery. Your quick and timely reactions with your camera are for sure better than mine at the wheel. :oops:

So are you talking to me again? You're not still mad at the hellacious asswhoopin' of gargantuan proportions I handed out to you on Sunday? I tried to phrase that as tactfully and gently as I could.

You mean we're still friends? I know how much you like losing. :lol:

So uh....... buddy???? You know I don't know how to get that firewire card installed so I can post that awesome video I took. Is it bad form to post an embarrassing video of someone who was nice enough to drive us to and from the track? :oops:

You mean like the one John handed you?? :lol: or like the myriad I've handed you previously?? :roll: Actually this happens so rarely it doesn't bother me in the slightest..:shock: :lol: Even a blind squirell finds a nut once in a while.... :wink:
I also figure if I don't help you with the avatar, I'll be able to get to the track and back to the hotel comfortably in the future... :lol:
