Too bad you're on the opposite coast, John. If you were closer by I could hook you up with some good dealers for golf carts. They can be life savers, particularly at hilly tracks like Sears Point (Infineon ?) and Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and (for me) Road Atlanta and VIR. If you've got a long bed pickup truck, you can drive the cart right up into the truck. I'm not sure how much weight I haul around the track, but it's significant. Two bodies, 16-45, 50-200, FA* 200, F* 300, Sigma 400, monopod and head, spare batteries, assorted odds and ends, image tank, ... and that doesn't even count stuff like rain gear, food and drink, spare smokes ... Geez, even just the camera-related gear is probably heavier than I thought it was. :-) -- Thanks, DougF (KG4LMZ) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
