    I've finally had the chance to run through the photos I shot at the FCA Annual meet in Corning, NY earlier in the month. I have included a selection of my favorites here, including many images from the long trip to the Glen (from Charlotte to Corning by way of DC) with my ridin' partners for the week/end, F-chat users Juan Manuel Fantango and Rubino.

    For a larger selection of images, check out this link:

    If any of you were at the event or are looking for shots of specific cars, drop me a line and I'd be happy to help you out! As always, prints of anything are available :)

    Special thanks to David and Bob for making this weekend possible, and most importantly...enjoyable!

    That's a moderately epic selection of photos, man.
    I'm digging them. Especially the FXX in the park.

    In addition to the event coverage, I also had the chance to shoot several cars in more controlled circumstances. Here is the first of a few images, a photo made during one of our sunrise drives into The Glen. This is Juan Manuel Fantango's 348 Challenge :)

    Richard, as always incredible work. I just love the older cars and their classic lines. Did you shoot any of the older engines and interiors? That last pic on the move is wild. I would love to see more of those.
    Thanks for the post

    They only look menacing for the first ten laps, then you kinda forget about them. Managed to survive the weekend without any new blue "racing stripes" on my car!
