So, this was my first trip to this or any other IRL event, and it was a lot of fun... I can already tell I'll never want to go without credentials though.
I wasn't signed up for a bib, but I didn't have any problem getting one. They had plenty of extras and just signed one out to me both Saturday and Sunday. I was there from about noon to six on Sat, and 7:30 to 5 on Sunday. I'm not going back today though
I've got like 700 shots from the two days and have just started culling them. I only processed one shot from qualifying (one of the first shots I took), and then my prize for the weekend that Danica's manager took for me

But then again talked with a good bunch of media guys this past weekend. Did not go back on monday.

Jake, how'd you get creds? Is this like Sebring where they check you and see if you're actually covering it for a legit publication? Sebring will not let freelancers, or anyone/any publication shoot, that has not shot or covered the race before...

I couldn't really get a good spot on Saturday when I went with JonLGT, but here are some of my shots. I had grandstand seating in turn 10 on Sunday and it was pretty much empty. On the top of the grandstand I could have gotten a clear shot for turn 10, but I had a feeling it was going to rain so I didnt bring my camera. I got soaked Sunday.
This is the best I could do
I wish I hung out in this spot a little longer:

Some nice work, people. I usually go to the SPGP, but freelance work kept me in front of the computer this time.
I'm hoping some of you will eventually post links ^_^
