For eight years, I ran a photojournalism workshop at Road Atlanta during the Petit Le Mans sportscar race. It was a great event but, with the sale of the series, all my contacts were let go. Not able to confirm a return in 2014, we built the new workshop at the fair and I hadn’t been back to the track since then.

This year, the SCCA had a both in the vendor area and I spent a couple of shifts volunteering. I also set up a little photo booth and let kids wear my old helmet, because every racer’s dream starts somewhere.
