OMG, I cannot believe that just happened! I was holding my breathe when the music stopped and the cars were flying around in slo mo...

Hey J isn't that Chris Duskin in a bunch of those stills?

[Jarek Zabczynski]

That's awesome!

It's sunny but it looks like the Epics have no ND unless there are screw on filters I can't see. What's the deal? Super fast shutters and small aperatures???

I was wondering about this too.

[Jon Jones]

It looks like the apertures are closed with high shutter speeds on most of the cameras, but on the camera shooting the interior of the car, there must be at least a screw on filter, because the background is out of focus. I think that the event was a one time thing, and happened so fast maybe they didn't want to worry about focus pulling and what not on most of the rigs. Just to be on the safe side they left it closed so everything was in focus.

Fun! And, a word I use very seldom, Awesome! I like seeing the 8mm Nikkor fisheyes. Gotta pull mine out and go play...

[David Adamic]

Dang, the only thing that could have made that cooler is if Red's logo was on the bottom of the cars as they went off the jump!

[Patrick Tresch]

Cool!

But don't brake your neck!!!!
