For starters, Supercross is awesome. I'm surprised it took me so long to get into it, but I'm grateful I got into it when I did. Daytona was my first sx event, and now Saturday I added East Rutherford, NJ to the list too. I think attending Red Bud had to have ignited the initial interest, and it's only grown from there.
It's funny how some of the best times are created from last minute planning. I had been wanting to go to the NJ sx since it's been on the schedule this year, but wasn't sure how it would play out logistically. One day a friend offered to buy the tickets if I drove. Less than ten minutes later tickets were purchased. Saturday came and we made a full day out of it, departing at 8:30am.
One of the wisest things I did this past Saturday was taking my Polaroid camera to the race. I managed to capture some pretty awesome shots on film. Below are a few digital and print snapshots of the event. In case it's not apparent, I am also equally obsessed with panoramas as I am with Polaroids. Below are some shots from the event.
I've found that taking burst photos on an iPhone is one of the best ways to get a killer action shot. I take them a lot at the race track, and the Baja Brawl was no exception. Below is an animated GIF of the #51 from 31 photos in a burst.
Steve Murray rode his YZ250 this weekend at the Polka Dots MC Motocross practice day (Saturday) & race day (Sunday) that has fresh new graphics for this year including the Throttle Down Speed Co. logo. The 51 went 5-5 on race day & looked pretty sharp.
