Unfortunatley we only got to see half of the hill climb since we encountered hail, snow, and lightning in the afternoon on the upper part of the mountain. Because of that, they moved the finish line well below all of us and we sat in our car until the race finished. :mad:

Anyway, here's a teaser of what we saw:

Nice shots! That's me in the blue jacket when Unser came by. That's my good side.:D

Very cool shots indeed! Thanks for sharing!

Anyone know when this is going to air on tv? Hope I didn't space and miss it.

Amazing pics! What kind of camera?
Hota 06-29-2004 01:32 PM

My brother took these pics with a Canon 1D (Mark 1) body and mainly with a Sigma 20mm f/1.8 lens.
TimStevens 06-29-2004 01:33 PM

Cool, they look great.

Automatic settings or did he custom set them? They are BEAUTIFUL pics!

Thanks...he's quite the amature photographer. I believe he used aperture priority to set the focal length. The camera then automatically selects an appropriate shutter speed.

Check out his pics from the US Grand Prix a couple of weeks ago:

Wow he is just GREAT... been a while since I've seen an amateur with such talent. I wish I could do that!! I guess I'll keep practicing with the 300D :)

Although I think it was Ari Vatanen in climb dance.

I think Climb Dance was filmed over 2 years. Most of it was Ari in 1988, but I believe some of the footage was Robby Unser in 1989.

Yoshihiro Oi is my man.

He stopped his Zoil/Zele Top Secret 350Z car by our group just uphill of the tarmac on the picnic grounds and waived us over to shake his hand. He actually stopped for us.

This guy was immersed in the thrill of Pike's Peak. My hat goes off to this man.

Yoshihiro Oi was definitely one of the more exciting drivers to watch. He had the crowd gasping at how sideways he got his car. On the hairpin approaching Devil's Playground, I thought for sure he was going to spin. His style is definitively Japanese drifter.

Check out this picture. You'll notice his front tires are traveling along the path of most other car's left tires and his rear tires are traveling along the path of most others' right tires! :eek:

Stunning pics! Kudos!
Fred 06-30-2004 10:24 AM

Great photos. The photography is there, so as long as he's a good businessman he should have no problem as a pro. I've been on/off lately on the pro stuff, because I have no business skills :o & doing this to make money kindof takes the fun out of it sometimes. :rolleyes:

Wow.
Those are incredible shots. Thanks for posting them.
ratt_finkel 06-30-2004 01:43 PM

Very nice pics. I hope to make it up there sometime.

Unser was only mentioned as a Peugeot driver in 1989, not as the one who is actually acting in the film
