July Heat Solo @ Stroud
This weekend I went out to Stroud for another local autocross event. It wasn’t too hot and this time I brought adequate sun protection (hats, sunblock, etc.). This is also a trip report for my first full outing with the 5d mark 2 and the 100-400mm Canon lens. I had a lot of fun and filled up 24GB of memory cards.
Autocross at the Stroud Tornado Mall
This weekend I was able to go with some friends to a local autocross event held in Stroud, Oklahoma. A few years back Stroud was hit by a rather devastating tornado which completely destroyed an outlet mall along highway 44. What sits there now is a parking lot which has been converted into Stroud Tornado Mall, a racetrack where local SCCA events are held. The weather was nice but the sun was in full force and I ended up with a pretty nasty sunburn. It was very fun to take pictures of something totally new to me though. (more…)
