One of my sponors is making a promo card for me and I need your permission to use some photos and high res copies sent. I'm not sure if you guys want money as well but that's what the thread is about.

The problem is, I don't know who took what!

BDW, these are the two of yours I'd like to use:




This one belongs to a guy named Kyle from Transworld I think. Anybody know his name and how I could contact him, or if it's somebody else?



I have no idea who took this one...I'm hoping it's Homey's:





I have to get this done asap because I have a tradeshow in Chicago on 9/11 through 9/13.

Thanks guys!

Chris

I have a few of you, your welcome to use. If you do use any of them, can I just get a couple of the promo cards? Here's one, I will get the rest when I get home later tonight.. Cool?

Whatever is easier for you. They just need them to be high res. Also, they need them by tomorrow morning so they can get them printed in time. Thanks man! You going riding this weekend?



Huck, the sponsor is doing this on their own for a tradeshow they are part of, however, I will be making my own soon, and will definately need your services!


Bobby, yeah, I got your message and have been super busy. I saw that Mike is getting all the things that he needs and that's why I didn't call back. You should be prepping for the Games already...how's that goin? Smile

Bobby, I'm serious, you would have a great time. You would do very well without having to push very hard...and you're kinda like a celeb in the moto industry!


Hey, do you know DC? If so, could you ask him to run my Hi-Flyers card in the magazine pretty soon? It would really help me with sponsorship for the Baja 1000.

If I don't get enough support I'm going to just have to race the 1000 without pre-running, which isn't the best decision.

Thanks man!

Chris

I'm just down the hill, Fontana, basically the 15 and the 210 fwy.

If your serious, I wouldn't charge anything to shoot some pics. Problem is, that track isn't very photo friendly. Last time I was there snappin' pics they asked me to leave the track area and shoot from behind the fences. Maybe that's changed? I don't know.

hmmm, I dunno. I had a friend take some shots before but it wasn't too busy and they didn't say anything.

What about a different track? Any suggestions?

It was pretty busy the day I was there, so maybe thats why.

I think Glen Helen is open for practice on Saturday. May be a little too sandy though? Here are few I took last Thursday from Glen Helen....





We can try Comp, I mean all they can say is get behind the fence right?

Racetown is cool...

Have you checked out Milestone? Three tracks for big bikes.

None of those shots are mine.

Did you spell my name right? Smile I don't have them yet. Sometimes people put an "E" in my last name.

I just copy and pasted your email. Because of the high resolution it is taking my computer forever to transfer... You should have two now. Another two on the way, and then a third. File was to big with three pics to transfer.

I got the first email with 2 pics in it, but nothing else. I use a wireless card and sometimes I get the same problems. I hate sending pics in emails because it always takes forever!


Do you want to meet somewhere tomorrow? I can handle Glen Helen fer sure.
