My buddy Bruce (Xplantdad) got me fired up over his old CC Nats photos from 25 years ago. Here's some of mine that I took at the 1984 CC Nats West held at Sacramento's Cal Expo (California). The previous October I got my first camera, a Nikon 35mm, for my 21st birthday and I was bitten by the camera bug. Many of the photos are taken from up close to the cars, cropping the front and rear of the cars, because it was difficult to keep dudes from walking through my pictures. I'd have to stop, set up the shot, wait for a small gap, and quickly shoot the photo.
First photo is of a Pro Street Chevette that took my breath away as it came toward me. It had an injected Rat and just looked and sounded so right. I just froze and shot the photo, then stood there in awe as it rumbled past.
