SCCA TDI Cup at Miller Motorsports Park

21Jun10

Professional freeskier Grete Elliassen driving in the SCCA TDI Cup at Miller Motorsports ParkIt had been about two years since I was last out at Miller Motorsports Park in Tooele, UT.  A lot of my friends are involved in the race scene out there but with the amount of travel I’ve done in the Summer the past two years, it’s been tough to get out.  A week ago my friend Stan Evans was heading out to shoot the SCCA TDI Cup for Red Bull and the movie “Say My Name” as professional freeskier Grete Eliassen was driving in the event so I went along to help out and shoot a little bit.

It’s been far too long since I had been out there, it’s such an amazing facility and we are very lucky to have it out there, especially since it’s only a 45 minute drive away from the city!  It was a fun day and it being a smaller level event it was a mellow scene there and I could go anywhere.  I also hadn’t actually shot from the infield before so it was nice to shoot from a different perspective than I’m used to from the perimeter of the course.  They have done a lot of work to the facilities out at Miller Motorsports Park since the last time I had been there which also made it really nice to be there!

I’ll be updating the site with more stuff from MMP in the future, mostly with Quick Pic blog posts but I’m doing a few projects out there that I’ll be posting later in the Summer when I’m finished.

    Discount card is the way. Wingpointe, Bonnivelle, both Mountain Dell courses, some others but those are the good ones.

    SLC discount card. Pay $75 ($50 w/usga membership) and you get 20% off of golf/range balls for a year.

    I guess you haven't looked then. Most every course in the SLC area that is decent or good is under $50, even with a cart.

    Oh yah. It said I'd get throttled down if I went over 3gb next month. Supposedly not until then though.
