It's nice to look for a pic of your car, one of a pair of pretty rare cars there and no pic. However I did enjoy the pics of the bone stock Focus's, Cobalt's and Honda's. |

We can't be everywhere and take pictures of everything. We were getting situated with the new setup. Plus we try to get some enjoyment and not work the entire 4 hours we are there.
However, if you have any pictures from the cruise, you can also upload them to the site. |

| Cars are coming and leaving too, remember we walk down the line, taking pics then 10 mins later a car pulls out and a new one pulls in. Believe me we don't have pictures of every honda or escort either. Add to that the occasional bad exposure/blurry image. Sometimes we have to delete a picture or two due to bad exposure before we upload. |

I completely understand both of your points, cars do come and go and I'd want anyone that takes the time to take pic's to enjoy themselves. However the two other cars that I arrived with have pic's, I was there early parked in the pro pits, no biggie, I just thought it was ironic. The real issue is allowing all the cars into the infield that have absolutly no reason to be there, while I saw nice classics looking for a place to park. |

Which 2 cars are you talking about? There were a lot of nice cars there, but I don't know which ones you were talking about. I know John was walking up and down the isles taking pics of every car he could. I'll even add the reason that we get stopped or stop and talk to people we know. We encourage anyone that has a digital camera to bring it, take a bunch of pics, then upload them to the site. It's a simple process and it lets other eyes take pictures to share.
As for them allowing certain cars that had no reason to be in the oval track, that is the security at the entrance that lets them in. They let in a lot of crap that should have been in the parking lot. My Trailblazer is clean, but there is no reason I would even think of bothering to show it in the oval track. |

| 99% of the time I have a very good digital camera on hand. I'll be happy to take the pictures and send them if I'm there (just look for pink). I have taken several pics at different places but have no time to go through them, crop, fix etc... If you want to make sure there's a pic of a certain car, just flag me down. |
My mid-life crisis includes a mustang. It can't be all that bad! |

| Last time I checked this site was free. No need to complain that someone didn't take their camera ($$$$), take their free time, and take more time to upload it onto their site for the world to see. All for free. If you see a pic of your car, great. If not, go intoduce yourself to those guys at the next event. They will be sure to take some pics. There's literally no way you could get a pic of every car there. There are too many cars coming and going, you'd lose track. |
