Had a great weekend at the Precision Drift event at Ozarks International Raceway. Although the weather could have been better it was a great weekend packed full of action. On the outer track they had a track day for the Evolve GT motorcycles group with the inner track being used for the Precision Drift event. I will be posting up photos throughout the week from this weekend so keep your eyes open. If any teams are interested in a photo package feel free to shoot me a message for details.

While I definitely prefer my rallies during daylight hours I do really love making light trail photos from the rally cars in the woods. With yesterday's rally not actually starting until almost 6pm it meant we only got the first two stages done during the daylight hours. That meant that stages 3,4,&5 were all going to run during the nighttime. With the rally not ending until 11:30pm it made for a very long night for me, but at least I got some cool shots.

Another rally in the books. This time I had an extra hand for the first time since my last helper moved to Washington state last year. My middle son Kaylob decided to join me for the Missouri Ozark Rally in Crawford County. He's been wanting to go for a while and since the other Missouri rallies are during the school year he finally got a chance to join me for this one. About two years ago I bought him a starter camera set up to learn the basics on. I haven't really spent a ton of time yet teaching him composition and how to make his settings work together while in the field much. So he basically got a crash course this weekend and we spent the afternoon today going over his photos that he captured. We discussed everything from what having too high of an ISO does, body placement in relation to his subject, effects of shutter speed and aperture, working on panning technique. We sorted through his captures and overall for his first event he did pretty damn good. We have some other events in the coming weeks that he is wanting to join me on so hopefully the extra practice will help him improve even more. But anyway without further adieu here are Kaylob's captures.

It's rally weekend finally! I will be down in Steelville, MO for the return of the Missouri Ozark Rally for the weekend. This is the first time since 2021 a rally has been ran in Crawford County and it also marks the return of the iconic cattle guard jump that was once associated with the 100 Acre Wood Rally. Also just received an email confirming my media application for the upcoming Precision Drift/ Evolve GT track weekend here in a couple of weeks at Ozark International Raceway. It's been a busy race season so far and I'm looking forward to what's ahead.

Here are some of my shots from the Gridlife Special Stage event in Atlanta last month. Unfortunately I didn't take anywhere near the amount of shots I normally take partially due to trying to help Mike get a radiator hose fixed(which ended up being a blown head gasket) and also with the rain Saturday and no podium sprint there weren't as many cars out on the track racing. So while everything didn't go well for footage it was still a great event at a really cool track. Unfortunately due to prior obligations and also lack of vacation time left I will be missing next weekend's event in Michigan at Midwest Fest. It's been a very busy spring with trips all over the place, Luckily I will have a little break for the month of June so I can get some much needed upgrades and maintenance done on the Crosstrek. Look for updates from that over the next month.

So as most of you know I went down to Atlanta this past weekend with Mike C***s for the Gridlife Special Stage which was a joint venture with Formula Drift. This was my first time attending a Formula D event. The way the event weekend ran was the Gridlife series ran in the morning til the early afternoon and the Formula D ran from the afternoon into the late evening. With Mike's engine issues topped with the constant rain on Saturday we decided to skip the Saturday afternoon session and load up to head back home. Here are some of the shots I got from the Friday evening session. I'm still debating on if I will attend the July event in St. Louis but there is a good chance of it.

Took some shots of Mike C***s new livery for the Gridlife Atlanta Special Stage. Unfortunately an unfortunate turn of events forced him to retire for the weekend during the first session, but thats racing though.🤷‍♂️ The car still looks good and he will regroup to make the Midwest Festival in a few weeks.
