What a great weekend! A light turnout, but great races, positive attitudes... must have been the beautiful November weather.

 

Great idea. Done :up:

 

pm me your addy and i'll get you one out tomorrow.:up:

 

He sent me back a response saying he had a blast covering the event.

 

Maybe we can get someone at the AJC interested in the GNF?

 

I was thinking that the rider was wayyyyy to small to be you.
Were you even there on Sunday?

 

We made page 4 going down the front straight!!!

Yes, I know the pic is huge. Has to be so you can read it, and I'm too lazy to resize and the do an image link. If enough people scream I'll resize it on the server.

 

In response to my email thanking Jamey for the positive comments:



Thank you so much for your kind comments. I sincerely appreciate it and I am truly floored and astounded at the sheer number of emails I have received. I had a wonderful time sunday and am a big fan of motorcycle racing in general myself (long time Valentino Rossi fan myself) and I am glad to give WERA the support it deserves.

Unfortunately, I am not a staff photographer, only a summer intern, so my time with the paper is short before I head back to school but rest assured that I will be at the next event that I have the time to get to.

Thank you again for your email. I appreciate it more then you know.

Jamey

 

Panthercity will be cursing your name about now.....don't mind him, he's still on dial-up.

 

he sent me the same email, guess it's easier that way. Wonder how many emails he got?

 

Got a nice response as well.

That person should have a ticket waiting for them at the next event.:up:

 

An added bonus I didn't even consider. Sweet!

 

I'm working on something better!!

 

:up:

 

Go, Hooey!

 

hey racers. I decided to hop on and say hello and give my personal thanks for flooding my inbox with thank yous.

I had a blast covering the races sunday and look forward to doing it again in the future.

Best,
