The movie looks great on the site. I can't stop watching it. We have
about 30 minutes on film. I did manage to get a shot with my Pentax, but
the explosion just made everything a blur (thought I would send it
anyway). I wanted to share the other pix I did get. I am usually down at
the line for the best shots (I like to get the launch). I would have been
standing right about where it exploded, but I decided to shoot from the
first grandstand to get a shot of both "Trial N Error" cars.
Good choice I made ...ya think? They were having problems with the other
car that Randy Bykowsky drives. They shut him off and Jason ran a single.
After the boom, it took me a second to gain my composure. It scared the
hell out of me, especially seeing it through my telephoto. I missed some
good shots because I froze.
So far, the only thing they know is that they broke two connecting
rods. They are still trying to figure out why the tank blew from the
inside.
