Default Photo Victim: TAZ Trackday 4/24 (37 Pic Warning)

Attended the Team Arizona Trackday at Firebird West today in Chandler, Az. Beautiful day, 80's and partially cloudy. Big thank you to Jack from TAZ for allowing me on the track wherever I wanted to go. Anyways onto the pics.











































































Thanks for looking.

Those are some sweet pics. Everytime I try and take pictures of fast object, they turn out blurry.

Just your basic digicam? Most basic ones are pretty much crap for anything like that. Assuming you can get around the lag that most digicams face you can work around it. If yours has a shutter speed and aperature setting it's pretty easy to fix. Set your shutter speed to a faster setting and compensate by setting the aperature to a lower f-stop. Basically this makes your camera take the picture quicker and require less light for exposure by focusing more on the foreground. Judging by the "fast" backgrounds on these pics I'm guessing this is what ambrose did.

All that said, this is my new wallpaper at work:

You aren't helping my track addiction. It's so tempting to just go drop a grand on everything I need

I hope this pic is either of a chick or some subhuman species. This person looks way to skinny.

Yeah pretty small track, I didn't ride but I would guess top of 3rd maybe barely into 4th.

No clue how much I haven't ridden with them before but it looks to be an awesome organization, everything ran incredibly smooth and there were only 2 crashes all day.

Motard guys were out in force that day, I'd say close to a third of the bikes there were motards. its really gaining popularity here mainly because we live in the middle of the desert so its cool to have a dirtbike and a trackbike and if you can consolidate the two that's even better. That and you can beat the crap out of a motard, drop it and it still wants more.
