I just inked a deal to make the company I work for a title sponsor of the "Summer Nationals" in Worcester, MA during June 30 through July 2. This show is incredible as they shut down the center of the city for burn outs, flame throwing and drag racing into the tunnel. There are Hot rods and custom bikes everywhere.I will be very busy at the show but I can get credentials for five or six photographers to basically wander freely throughout the event. (my Circle entry was taken at this show)I prefer to offer this opportunity to amatuers first, but will open my invition to the first five or six who let me know by PM. Please, only serious inquiries only.

A bit too far for me to go. We had something like that here last weekend. Lots of fun even thought I couldn't go wandering about loosley.

The motorcycle stunt show was the most fun (and amazing)

Did I mention that we'll have promotional models there who love to have thier photos taken around hot rods and motorcycles? For example....

One last bump!

I am sad to say this isn't going to work out for me. I'm getting bad noises from my belts on the Jeep, I think it's the idler pulley, and I'm not going to be able to risk the longish drive until I scrape up the dinero to get her fixed :-(

Please allot "my" pass elsewhere, and thanks for the very kind offer...

I'm sorry you can't make it. Our company sponsors many events of this type throughout the Northeast, so perhaps you can make a future one.

Hey Neophyte-

I'm interested- though not 100% sure I can make it. Is there a schedule for events?

Wish I could go, but I'm way out here in Minnesota. Think your company can sponsor an airline ticket? :)

If you have to ask....... Its a large bowl that one rides an old indian Motorcycle around in along with either one or two other motorcyclists. Reaching speeds of 60 mph you come withinn inches of the other bikes while perpendicular to the earth.

I think we're going to have to go with a no then. I'm all for racing motorcyles...but not within inches of each other...

And they're not even going in the same direction (I wouldn't do it either..)

Yeah...no. I'd be all for watching it though! Take some good shots for all of us. I might go out to the motorcycle race in Wisconsin later this summer for some shooting. Hope you have a good time though.
