STMX Practice 11/22/09

I was not on my game today – let’s see, I chopped off heads, had the lens pointed down to far on my son’s helmet cam, had JPEG Images selected on the Helmet Cam instead of video, for Joe LaFalce.  My camera setting were not working for me..  ughhhhh……  What an idiot today I was..  lol

Joe’s picture images from the first attempt with the helmet cam.

Dade City Stars Of Tomorrow Race Night 11/07/09

What a cool race night at DADE CITY!  Don’t mean the weather, I am talking about the races.  Holding the Stars Of Tomorrow Invitational Race is a great way to showcase the best mini riders in the state!  They had qualifiers then the main, and the kids were hauling.

WOW, I suck at taking action photos at night.  I ran out of daylight so quick, that I did not get the pics I wanted for the evening.  This is now on my “to do” list, learn how to take good action shots at night.  I will perfect this, it’s my new challenge!  With the time change, I did not have much daylight to take pictures, so I ended up taking video the rest of the evening…

CLICK HERE FOR ALL THE PICTURES I TOOK (MOST OF THEM ARE FROM PRACTICE)

The mini riders who made the MAIN, had an autograph signing session, and Dade City gave each rider all sorts of cool stuff.  A program was printed to show each rider who participated, with a riding shot and a head shot.  The winner of the race, RJ Hampshire, received a bike from Barney’s.  The entire evening was great, and it certainly was an honor for all the mini riders who were invited to participate.

Wishing Kory Keylon a speedy recovery, he took a nasty fall during his race.

I will be posting additional footage – unedited – later this week, so check back.

Freedom Racing Training Compound

I went back to Freedom Racing today, after oh say about five or six years.  Crazy that it has been that long since I have been there.  I arrived late in the day, and no sun. Dalton Yingling, Taylor Franklin, Ian Chia, and Kurt Traulsen Jr. and Sr. were on the track while I was there.  Brandon Westberry, Derek Hall and Kyle Goerke had just finished when I arrived.  Next time I will get to the track earlier in the day. I really did not snap very many photos, but I did get a helmet cam of the track.  Below is Dalton Yingling.
