It's hard not to love that fellow.

Oh man.  That pic looks familiar.  :|

I believe it might have been Pork Pie who offered to take pictures of our truck last year at Speed Week but I had to decline due to family considerations.  I had already promised my kids to play with them. 

Pork Pie, if that was you, I hope you didn't take offense, as none was intended.



I think not.....due to this that normally the racers comes to me and ask to do picture from there racer.....they keeps me busy enough  :-D  .......but there is no wonder that I look familiar.......after all the years at the salt I'm a part of the salt.......when I'm around the starting line you will see me about 20-30 yards out on the track to pick the starting racer from the front with the starting grid behind.

A other reason why I think it was not me.......the color of you racer  :roll: ....white  :| .......an absolute nightmare for a photographer.....white on white..... but otherwise....if I had done picture from you, you would be very happy with them :wink: I think so........

That's good.  The gentleman had a European accent, and was upset that I wouldn't take the truck out of impound to get pictures for a diesel mag.  I felt I might have come off as grouchy.

PorkPie

taking the racer out of the impound - who is getting a so crazy idea......  :roll:

May be a first time tourist from Europe.....but I think I didn't count anymore as a beginner  :-D

But, honestly, if you like to make a shooting with the truck....let me know....may be I can catch you on the starting line, too....what color got your parachute?

I'd love to get some pictures of our truck if you get any.   :cheers:  It has a black parachute, and will be running the short course.  It has lots of stickers on it now, since I heard that each sticker is worth 10 horsepower.  So I added 200 HP.

Yes, I would agree a fat white 3/4 ton truck isn't a very sexy model for photography.  But what else would a fat white 3/4 ton guy drive?  :D

When the cloud changes from black to white, that means we are through for the week.  It's just like a surrender flag, except there is no French content on the truck.
