This is how I spent my sunday! We had great seats, I was covered in rubber by the end of the day but it was wellllllllll worth it! I had a blast!
The funny cars have an estimated 750hp per cylinder, thats more than any one Nascar. Thats a grand total of 6000hp! No wonder why they have to be rebuilt after each run! The catch is they only have 75 minutes to do it and they have to use the same chassis everyrun for the day. At least they get a police escort back to the pits!
I was shooting with my DSLR and a 300mm lens if anyone cares

nice man you took some great pics
great pictures!
how long did it take you to set up this whole post?! it would take me at least an hour to upload alll those and comment on them all
yeah, it took a while...
1. go thru 400+ pics
2. figure out which ones I really liked
3. do some cropping and editing (after posting I realized I missed a bunch of editing)
4. upload them, thank god you can upload 20 at a time on photobucket
5. comment on photobucket
6. copy and paste to the thread twice cause the first time I was almost done IE performed an illegal action (how convenient)
Yeah, it took a couple hours
time to get ragged on for the gay commentary? 21 minutes..... ah.... Priceless
JBO 4 Life!
thanks for the comments guys!
Feel the cars? Yeah, to say the very least! I told my girl "Its unlike anything you have ever experienced." She just looked at me like ok.
We get there before any cars took off, she is situating her seat during a burnout. Loud? yea, but she expected it. She is still fiddling with her seat... They stage.... still fiddling....
Tree falls, the cars roar! She jumps out of her skin and turns around! I laugh my ass off! She thought something exploded! I said they did, they at less than 4 seconds down the quarter mile, they had too!
Great day at the races!
man, i would KILL to have a photography job there!!

That was sunday, you were there on sunday? Thats awesome, I heard that ARMY broke a motorcycle record on Saturday, that would have been awesome to see.
My parents went on Friday to see them race at night. She showed me some video, insane! I wish I could have gotten some shots of the flames shooting 4-5ft in the air!
