Be sure to pick one bundled with the lens you want.

There are many to choose from, now and in the future, when ya go with SLR.

I got my Pentax 6.1Mp ist DS a couple years back. At the end of May they are going to release a 55-300mm auto focus lens for about $400.

Tax return came today, I’m tempted to pre-order!

What could you or did you see when Flash hit the inside wall?

Not much from where we were. His impact point was just below the roof top level of all the RV's and things.

I have been involved in racing for 2 decades. The oil cooler better work properly...Turning an engine continuously at high RPM creates more heat and friction...

Say it ain't so!

Kenseth had nothing for Edwards. He even said on the radio that he was a sitting duck. Flash might have, but obviously, his tars didn’t. I don’t know whether the lid being off makes more hp, but if it does, there’s a legitimate gripe, especially with the harsh penalty against Robby Gordon.

You can take Nascar out of the south, but it's impossible to take the south out of Nascar....just too funny.


The drug / bomb puppy. This really surprised me, they were checking everything.


Jeff Hammond. Great with the fans, posed for tons of pics with people, took time to talk with them.


At least they were all going the same direction today!


The Northern one's ride...


The back of the pit boxes.


The boy is happy about this one.


Mr. Lug Nut....


Pit road.....and all my friends!


The boy is buying a couple of used lug nuts from Hambone, the money goes to charity.

Sorry, the addressee's in a post. Used to always append with a "xxx; ALL".

Now, when I do that, it shows up as "xxx; .."

It hasn't changed. You probably didn't notice what happened there. When you have more names than it displays, it puts the "..." in there to signify that there are more names in your list that didn't display.

Look at Norm's thread ping to the gang at the start of the thread and you'll see the "..." for the 140 or so names that didn't display.
