BTW, Robert Yates in cooperation with Jack Roush are the official engine
supplier for Ford to their NASCAR racing efforts.

Hi Mark,
Thanks much. They're Kodachrome 64 transparencies. As I recall, the
panning was pretty tough, and I didn't get that many good ones. I probably
had to shoot at about 1/125th or 1.250th, as the track speed was probably
about 180 mph at this location. Some shots might have been under yellow
though. Shot a bunch of Tri-X that week as well. I'll have to scan some
if I run across it. I sent some of these to Doug Yates whose dad, Robert
Yates, was Allison's engine man. Doug runs one of the big Nascar teams
today, but he recalled being there as a wee kid when I was shooting these.
I didn't know that.

Nice shots all around, Paul. Great panning work as well. No image
stabilization I assume... These are Kadachromes so they are ISO 200 or
less?

I went to Daytona with Bobby Allison and his crew to do a story for
Motor magazine, a Hearst pub, in February of 1983. Ingersoll Rand
sponsored the trip. While there, I met a Bozell & Jacobs exec who
handled the IR account. We talked, and within weeks I had left Hearst
for the ad biz. It changed my life, for the better I think. Today I
scanned some of the Kodachromes I shot in Daytona. The wides were with
my Vivitar 20/3.5. The long lens track shots were with my Vivitar
200/3.5, which I think was showing the effects of having been wiped with
a t-shirt too many times. But it was all a lot of fun.
