2011 Runoffs
I recently took a racing trip with my Dad to Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin. It’s about an hour north of Milawuakee and sits on a beautiful 650 acre plot of land. The track itself is four miles long and is all about horsepower and high-speeds. A great place to have a race.
I wanted to chronicle more of the journey from “home base” at our shop in Santa Barbara, CA, to the track, and the action itself. Unfortunately, our primary help had to bail and I had to step up, dramatically sacrificing my shooting time. As such, the 645 stayed at home and only the Leica M6 and 50mm Summicron came. Armed with Ilford Delta 100, XP2, and Kodak Ektar I managed to get a few snaps.
It’s always a great time headed out there and hanging our with the Toyota Racing family. A great group of people to go racing with. We ended up placing the car in 3rd after a 13-lap “sprint” race and were the only Toyota to cross the line.
Can’t wait for next year…
austin healey 3000 mk2
For some reason, we got the bright idea to get up at 5am on a Sunday to shoot video of this Austin Healey 3000 Mk II. Luckily, it was a gorgeous morning in San Francisco. I packed the Leica, Canon Elan 7e, Contax, Ilford XP2, Portra 800, and Fuji 400H.
