Pylon judges having fun????

NEVER!!!





I remember back to, I think it was 2000l, I was involved with the World of Wings TV production.. On a day off, I got to go to Pylon 8 where Dave DeVos was doing his on-camera stuff.. They would set for his scene, get the camera ready, Dave was set and one of the pylon judges would photo Dave from behind by lifting his shirt up over his.... rather sizable belly... After about the third time of start/stop with everyone cracking up, Dave goes into this mock Hollywood rant... "I can't work like this, this is terrible, I'm a professional" and in the next split second he says.. "did anybody get a white balance on that"

Let's just say, everyone within earshot who was watching the shoot was laughing, hard!

Pylon judges having fun.... nonsense!!

I was hoping you'd share some of your home pylon shots with us. Thats like ground zero for the Reno Air Races.

Nice view from up there I bet.

Some angles of the pylon that not a lot of people experience.

The B & W is interesting with the stands in the background.

Shot for the sponsor and all the outdoorsmen out there.

Having spent my younger years fetching firewood, falling tall trees, these events are fun to watch and bring out the inner lumberjack in me. Wheres my flannel shirt :-)

Reno had a televised annual Lumberjack event at Ranch San Rafael park years back.
