Road America bound

My cousin Steve and I are headed up to Road America on Saturday for the SVRA event and I'm looking forward to it. I've not been to RA since...well, it's been so long I don't remember. It was probably for a SCCA event, I'm guessing June Sprints. My uncle used to race in the SCCA, first with a Fiat X1/9 and then later with a DSR Sorcerer R1 (not 100% confident on the name of the second car).

RA is about 2.5 hours north, not too far from Sheboygan. Surprisingly, the track is only a short drive from a lake called Crystal Lake.

I expect to shoot a lot of photos while there and I expect to keep very, very few. :) With any luck, the possibility of storms keeps dropping (it's down 10% since yesterday). I am also planning on bringing my Holga+Polaroid back with for a little extra fun with photography in the paddock areas. We'll see how well my Polaroid peel-apart film has held up. Expired film packs tend to die because the chemistry dries up. Hopefully this is not entirely the case, as I still need to get a few more shots of Nate before retiring that camera forever.

So, vintage race cars, a road course, and photography. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday.
