Many a racer shows up for the chance to race their friends and to go down the track but that’s not the only reason. They are there to compete.
RPM Nationals: From the Startline
As a photographer I sometimes get to do and see some cool things. While at the RPM Nationals I get to start right at the startline and watch my friends and other racers stage, get right up on the startline and punch that throttle launching their cars down the track. It just such a blast being right on top of the action.
RPM Nationals: From the Return Road
If you go down the track you’ve got to get back to the beginning and that means making your way down the return road.
RPM Nationals: Test & Tune
Saturday at the RPM Nationals starts off the day with grudge racing and test and tune runs.
