Thanks so much for the kind words everyone. I wouldn't call covering or photographing so much work, but a personal joy. But I wish more newspapers would print their local racing scenes. I spent high school in college in the backyard of Williams Grove Speedway in Pennsylvania and I always enjoyed the weekly racing section that my local paper published. I believe that Brad Vores did much of the writing. So I thought I'd try and see what I could do in this hotbed of racing in Indiana once I was hired as the Sports Editor at The Brazil Times. The section has been very well received amongst the racing community and even non-racing fans have commented to me about the photos. So that makes the job even that much more enjoyable!!
Thanks again everyone and if those of you who haven't seen our news site for the stories, it is: www.thebraziltimes.com
