I really need to stop creating more work for myself.

I cut it down from 200 photos to around 100. The feature basically won't load with that many in there...takes forever to do this feature when I do that...

Great job, people don't realize how much work that is. I still haven't had time to look through all my Pala photos Smile

When I used to do event coverage I would head home with around 2-5k shots after a weekend.... wayyyyyy, wayyyyy too many, from which I would edit down to around 50 for an actual post.... in later years my goal was to come home with under 1k shots.... but I rarely made that goal.. lol...

This weekend wasn’t too bad, I pretty much only shot for Pit Bits and shot video during the race instead. I had maybe 700 to sort through then.

When I shoot all day….2,500 to 4,000 for sure.

No pics from star pits. Noticed Justin cooper on a lot of stock parts.

Definitely my favorite feature that you guys do. So awesome seeing all the cool tech that these teams are able to make…and hide. Also great eye ML just goes to show how talented you are to be able to shoot and also be tech savvy enough to spot these things. Can actually learn something instead of just “oh and here’s the star bike!”.

Great pictures. I’m also a fan of the vented front number plates. We need more guys running those this summer.

Couldn't find a side shot of Cooper, but Thrasher and Romano definitely have different clamps and motor mounts

That's what I figured but thought maybe something a little more specific.

I couldn't purchase a pit pass at the track. They said they'd been sold out for a while. It is a small pit area but I had no idea they had an occupancy limit. Are there any other tracks with limited pits?

I think he went to air in general all day after possibly starting outdoors on spring.
