A week later than originally planned we would finally get the Southern Nationals in to completion at the Atlanta Dragway. Lets take a look at some images from a good day of racing in Georgia.
Following the delay of last weekends race here in Atlanta we would return to Commerce for week two of the Southern Nationals. Only one day of qualifying for the pro drivers with the threat of rain made for some stressed out race teams as we head towards the midpoint of the regular season.

With all the races/sports/scenery stuff I shoot I have been falling further and further behind on blogs. In an effort to catch up I am going to try something new. Instead of giant write ups a month or two after the event I am going to start posting within 24 hours my top 10 shots from each day at the races and Olympics in what I will now refer to as the 10 Spot. For all the events I am behind on I will only be doing 10 total shots from the entire weekend. Starting with NHRA Denver this weekend I will do a 10 Spot from each day of racing. Thoughts and suggestions are appreciated!

Another weekend, another NHRA race, this time at Atlanta Dragway, one of the few remaining NHRA tracks I had not yet been to. Luckily for me the track was like all the other ones where it was a straight line with a starting line and a finish line so I was pretty confident I would be able to figure it out…

Every summer boat racers from around the country converge on Augusta, Georgia for the Augusta Southern Nationals. I missed the last two years due to covering the 2007 Pan Am Games in Brazil and missed 2008 due to the Olympics in China but this year I was hell bent on heading east to cover one of the crown jewels of drag boat racing.
