I shot drag racing for the first time in almost 40 years yesterday because I had to get a shot for a magazine article. It was not fun. I spent five hours on the road getting to the track and back home. It was hot. I had to walk back and for the from trackside to the pits on my still healing knee. After standing at the guardrail for half an hour or more my back was killing me. But I got the shot I needed.

I practiced on some other cars while waiting for the fuel coupes to run. Got this brand new, shiny red Super Stock Dodge. Well, it’s not brand new. It’s over 50 years old, but it’s the car that Jan and Dean sang about way back then.
Incredible shots. You can almost hear the deafening sound of the engines...

Thanks, Gonz. Your lucky you can’t hear the engine. It was literally painful.
