I’ve posted a few pictures here from my outing to the NSC Velodrome in Blaine, MN. I was out mostly for fun and to support my friends racing. I had been inspired a while back by some track racing images from my internet photography and bike friend Wade out in California. I finally made the trek out to Blaine, MN and shot the opening round of Thursday Night Lights track racing. What an incredible evening and joyous night. After showing up, I went and filled the paperwork out, signed my liability waiver and got my volunteer vest. I did this so that I could shoot from the infield. I received instruction as well as some warning about where the pace motorcycle exits the track. The key things were that I could not get too close to the track and you can’t obstruct the officials point of view.   OK.. Got it. Now let’s get to shooting. Gear – I shot two cameras; the Fuji XT1 and the Olympus OMD EM1. I had a back pack full of gear but this is what I ended up shooting with for 99% of the night……..
