On Sunday 10/16/2011 we all met in Las Vegas for the Indy car race. My Dad, 2 brothers (Randy & Marek) and my brother in law Al. It was a beautiful day for a race. 93 degrees and blue sky's. It was a 200 lap race, but on lap 10 there was a 15 car wreak that killed driver Dan Weldon. the race only went 12 laps and then was called off for unsafe track conditions. The cars were going over 220 miles per hour at the time of the crash. I was using my Nikon D-80 with my 70-300 zoom. I just got lucky that I was shooting 6 frames per second at the time of the crash. The pictures tell the story.
