I wanted to take photos of more than one stage but with a combination of the weather and other things I only really got to capture the first spectator stage. One thing I found out the hard way is motorsports is one of the few things I’d rather just enjoy as opposed to photographing.

Your corner shots have the best perspective. Thanks for sharing. Next year if you want, you can join us to hike into the corners of the remote stages. Usually 40-60 min to get there and then spend about an hour before heading back to cars. We got into 3 stages in the two days and went to that service area at the Vinton County airport as well as that downtown gathering. For a first year back I think it went pretty well. I was the only one to go to the fair grounds before I drove to a Columbus hotel on way back to Akron.

I was really hoping to see a Volvo 142 but those Escorts were the next best thing.

Yeah, it was pretty good. When you say you hiked to the remote stages are you talking about areas that weren’t set up for spectators? My understanding was spectators had to go to the spectator area.

If you check out any rally most are on public land. They can’t restrict you to the one spectator area. The hiking trails in both the forest and park are still open to hiking, cyclist and the bridal paths. We encountered several hikers and about 6 bikes while getting to the stages. Anyone can hike to the stage sections as long as you stay safely away from the stage and don’t interfere with the corner workers. There were maybe a few dozen people we saw doing the same thing.
