For this week, I chose to go into the race shop during “shop night.” There are certain nights before races that the driver, crew chief, and crew members all get together for to work on the car, and typically loading the car and pit box into the trailer, to get everything ready for the upcoming race. With my images I tried to capture the true feel of one of these nights. I came when the boys were taking a break to eat some pizza for dinner. So these photographs encompass the pit box completely torn apart, the car with it’s hood off and parts sticking out, a torn-up door panel from a previous bad race, and the guys all sitting around talking over their pizza. I’m enjoying having my eyes opened to all of the moments like this that racing encompasses, but I’m having a hard time with actually finding time to photograph this.
