Baja 500 Trophy Trucks
A couple of photos taken at Erendira, Baja on June 2nd,2007 during the Baja 500 race. These trucks roared by me at 125mph plus. The Baldwin truck, leading the race for Trophy's, came within 3 feet of me when I took the photo. The noise was unbelievable and shock wave almost knocked me off my feet. I was laying on the road when the Riveria Truck was coming and I waved a red rag to let him know I was there. No more than 2 feet from me as he screamed by and actually rolled me over into a ditch. What a rush!!! Both photos taken with a Panasonic Lumix FZ7, no camera zoom, lens set at 36mm, photos not cropped or computer enhanced and straight from the camera. Lots of fun. Thanks
