Hi, check out the website us129photo.com,lots of Crossfire pictures.Look for pics taken on 10/31/09.Img 5085 shows at least 56 cars and a bit of 57.
Gary says there is a 10% discount if you use "Crossfire09" in the coupon section,I don't know how long that offer is good for.Good Luck.
I ordered some and still waiting,they said it might take 2 weeks.

Ya'll realize of course that you can order the Digital Image of any shot and have it in 5 minutes, right?

If I had my wide angle camera there we would have a full view photo.
I have had it for the other GTG's but not this one.

Guys, Personally I order only the digital image(s). My Walgreens has a 5x7 and 8x10 in-store special for $1 each, 2 weeks during each month.

Use "Crossfire09" and receive a 10% discount.
No expiration date for this 10% discount either.

OK finally got a computer to work and have placed a couple of files on my server, if this kills my server, I will have to convert them to Youtube

This is the run down the Dragon with Tom2112 Leading the way and Boilerupxfire directly in front of me. Sorry for the poor sound on the Dragon

Let me know if there are any problems, not sure when I will get to DVD quality, hopefully this weekend =)

James, I think you need Quicktime to view these, as they are .MOV files. You can get quicktime for free from Apple's website.

Apple - QuickTime - Download

Nice vids Scott. I liked the point in the dragon when someone said we might as well be going backwards

Also, it sounded at points like I was watching a real-to-real movie...LOL
