    Track Photographers: Pic Needed

    Hey, all you trackside photographers. I'm looking for a single pic that epitomizes the essence of racing in the MRA. The intended audience would be people (read: potential sponsors) who have no concept of motorcycle roadracing. I don't think that photograph currently exists, but if you think you have one, I'd like to buy it.

    I have some pictures of the super street race and practice in hot pits with the instructors.

    Hey Justin,

    It's just a long shot. We'll see.

    Looks like you're having a great season.
    Top 10 and a shiny new white plate for next year.
    Congratulations.
    Keep up the good work.

    Mike

    All of the above.
    The paddock, the crowd, the action - the essence of racing in the MRA. I think you'd probably need a helicopter to get all that in one shot. That's why I don't think any of you guys have exactly what I'm looking for - yet.

    Nice website, BTW.

    I was on track for my first MRA event at HPR for Saturday and really enjoyed the experience (although the heat kicked my butt before the end of the day). I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but what the heck. Here are a couple of the better examples from my shots (still have a ton left to "clean up"):

    Rest of shots are here (not broken into race groups, sorry):

    Thanks for letting a motorcycle noob on track!

    Not really showing the speed, but just an early morning shot from Saturday at PPIR.
