Right Light
Dirt Track and dust go hand in hand,
but it's brutal on equipment. But at
the Hartford Half Mile in June the dust
worked in my favor. Turn three was
flecked with sunlight during the last
qualifying practice and my goal was
to catch riders in one of those spots. I
only caught the perfect moment once.
I snapped the shutter, checked the
display and there he was… the "King
of Cool," Kenny Coolbeth Jr., on his
XR750 riding through the curtain of
dust. Everything lined up just right in
that image.
