Not strictly aviation related, but a local event more than a few of us go to.

Turn 10 (Grandstand 18 high or through a double photo holes) is the place to be.
Not sure if I'll make it this year.

I went on Friday with my dad to the Long Beach Grand Prix to watch the practice. Here's a few shots.

And I was able to catch an aviation related subject there too.

Thanks. Yeah, I got some shots of the drifting demo but not as many as the Indy cars. It was harder to capture the drifters when shooting through two fences.
