    Not only that but unless they are given permission to stand in a good spot and able to use a ladder or other equipment etc then the effort is plain wasted.

    Things have not changed but the best angle is looking at the front quarter of the car while launching and it's hard to get those type of shots w/o lotsa work or additional equipment.

    I have some pics from the front angle from people taking them and the track photographers. Lately, I seem to prefer the rear 1/4 view for some reason, maybe because I have seen so many of the front view pictures. This is my new desktop picture from Wednsday night :D

    Nothing dramatic, just a nice straight launch (even if the car did run like crap, not sure if I have mentioned that in a while).

    Tim - Come to race on a race day. When PRP finally gets to uploading the pictures, there are usually some good ones in there. Even better, stop and talk with one of the photographers and work something out.

    Tim, I'd be happy to take some shots of your ride next time I'm at the track without my car. I can take 3 pics/second which make taking launch pic that much easier.
