Yeah, to be fair, that's a whole other subject. Somewhere in the fine print
of your race entry there's something about the venue or race organizer
having the right to your likeness, and/or appoint an official photographer
who then has the right to sell them. Most of the track photogs are cool...
but some are not.
Gordon Jolley does a lot of races... apparently takes pictures of my car at
Road America one year, mails them to me, and bills me... all unsolicited on
my part. I had to tell him to pound it. I wasn't going to eat the cost of
postage to send them back.

All this leads me to wonder how much the owners of these cars were paid by
the
photographer. Meanwhile, I'll lust after the inclined A-motor; very tidy.
Did anyone notice the left-turning thermostat housing?

the picture for his own personal use, like in a screen saver

else's work.
Sorry an' all.
