The quiet before the storm Options

[Demick]

Things have been pretty quiet in the planning forum the last week. I take that as a good sign. All things are in motion and don't need much group discussion. Rob and I have been very busy with autocross planning and are coming together nicely.

2 weeks and counting......

John/Jeff:

The cars can be arranged any number of ways and this would take some detailed planning; I will defer to others (you/Jeff?/Keith?) to make the decisions as to how the cars are to be organized for the shot. As mentioned previously I think the lineup should driven by the already assigned participant number to ease planning/coordination, but I expect that the lineup can be determined well in advance since Jeff has all the details re: the participant's cars, colors, years etc. and I am assuming ONLY registered cars will be in the shoot.

Its hard to tell exactly how many cars abreast we can fit into the picture until we know exactly where and from what angle the shot will be made. Assuming we want to get as close as possible, we would have to use a wide angle since a tele would limit the field of view. Judging by your shot of 52 Miatas at Turn 10, 4 abreast is easily doable but I think we would want to go to 8-10 abreast to get as much detail/cars as possible. Some areas of the track will likely allow 10 abreast easier than others. I'll do some more research when I go out there next Saturday.

Thanks for the offer re: the ladder, I already emailed Bernie to see if he can carry it.
