yeah, you'll still be fine. im not sure what kind of turnout were anticipating, but the jr races are generally relatively small

The track photographer on Saturdays is awesome. Just give him a heads up, he'll take a bunch pics if you want.

should be. like matt said, the guy on saturdays is different than the guys with the tent. best way to find him is to find an employee with a radio (either near the front of the lanes, on the starting line, back of the lanes, etc) and ask them to see if they can find Greg VanEss for you (or jsut say greg the photographer). That should point you in the right direction. I'd offer to take some pics for you, but I'm in the middle of moving, doubtful ill make it over there this weekend.

See the fence? you can go right up to that, or take pics from the grandstand like this.
