I was thinking about either heading up there on Friday after work, or maybe early saturday. If you guys want to caravan, just let me know which you would prefer and we'll make it happen.

All you guys who show up and do the lapping at Road America for the MRR will be able to get some shots of your car on the track, from me. I'll be there lugging around my 30 pound camera.

Heavy! Ha, the camera body is a simple Nikon D70, but it's the money lens I have that makes all the difference for motorsports work.

I like that camera a lot, but I would hesitate to say "just" a D70. Much better than say, a digital rebel.
