Calling all race fans!

Post by BlueJays »

Hey guys, some of you might know that I work for a NASCAR team (Roush Fenway Racing), if anybody is interested in garage passes for any race other than Daytona or Talladega, as well as any road course, and would like to take some photos for us, let me know. I know we have a number of guys in the North East, we have Dover May 6 and Pocono June 2.

Just let me know!

Free admission to the infield and garage area. If you'd want to sit in the grand stands during the race then those would be separate tickets you'd have to get. I find standing behind the pit boxes on pit road to be a pretty good place to watch the race.

I’m down whenever they come to Texas Motor Speedway. What sort of pictures are you after?

Photos of cars in the garage stalls through-out the weekend (Friday and Saturday being more valuable for us, Sunday is useful as well, we try to get photographers for the entire weekend). I have a pretty comprehensive guide I send to photographers before they head to the track.

Harvick is part of Ford Performance, so I'm good with that. Plus he beat up Greg Biffle once and hates the Dillon brothers, so that's pretty cool too.

I don't follow Nascar as closely as I used to(pretty much since playoff format was introduced), so these days if I'm watching I just root for the local Furniture Row Car and Truex Jr.

Maybe one day Nascar will come to Colorado. One day.. maybe.

EWWW...I am too much of a craft beer snob to drink any of the big three unless it is for beer game stuff.

Side note, if I get tickets myself to the race at Sonoma, could I then get the garage pass upgrade to go along with it?

I'll ask, but I think Sonoma is a tough one for us to get garage passes since most of our sponsors like going to that race.

Hey everybody. I'm back at it, this time working for Richard Childress Racing. I know we have some north easterners here, and was wondering if anybody would like to attend the upcoming Dover race the weekend of May 5?
