Inside
the Team Force Pit
When
I was in the tower I struck up a conversation with a member
of Team Force who handles public relations. He extended
an invitation for me to come into the compound when they
warmed up the cars before the second qualifying session.
Being the Team Force fan that I am I naturally jumped
at this opportunity. As I was there I shot the following
photos.

John
Force was everywhere, taking care of business, fans, etc.
He has amazing energy. |
Courtney
spent a lot of time with the fans, signing pictures, posing
for photos and chatting. |
|
|
|
Courtney
makes it look easy, but look at the Traxxas girl's face,
who looks overwhelmed by it all |
Always
a smile. She's awesome. |
|
|
John,
too: he spent every extra minute he had with the fans, signing
autographs and chatting.
|
|
|
As
all that was going on, here's Mike Neff's team getting
the car ready for its warm-up. They were going about their
business patiently and methodically
|
|
|
It's
well known that John is a real family man, and these photos
speak for themselves.
