Topic: Anyone got good photos of the Ghost Ride The Whip penalty?

I'm working on a Jalopnik post about the construction of the amp/speaker box that was on the roof of my Crown Vic, and I failed to get any good shots of the Starsky & The Bandit Capri team doing their great dance routine during the Ghost Ride The Whip penalty (if you saw the penalty in action, you know the one I mean). If you captured some shots of the Starsky Bandit Dancers doing their thing on the Penalty P71- and I saw many photographers in action as they danced their way around the paddock- please email me the photos.

The team that started the mosh-pit when the Metallica song came on was my favorite ghost riding team...

I have some of the "german train" behind you from the Rammstein parade on my iphone.  I might have the starsky guys or the 1UP team ghost riding the Vic on my other camera at home.  I'll check tonight.

Sorry, I got nothing.

Happily, I can state that we did not see any time in the 'Judges Playground'.

Yes, those guys have inspired us to add a mosh-pit penalty to the repertoire. They were the world's lamest dancers to Kool Keith, but perked right up for Metallica.

That happened right in front of our pits; I've got a handful of 'action' shots of the guys jumping into and onto the Vic and generally cavorting.  They're yours if you want 'em.

I'll get on it.  They're from my old Nikon D70 so should be plenty big.

Re: Anyone got good photos of the Ghost Ride The Whip penalty?

Well, maybe not.  Got kicked back because file size was too big.  Is there a Jalopnik FTP I could dump them on?  I only tried to send 5 pics, but I guess it was too much.

Just resize them to 1280 wide

Jalopnik doesn't publish pics bigger than that

"This is the scene where I get shot," Bronson said. "I have these little squibs that explode to make it look like bullets are hitting." "Fascinating," said Bergman. "I never knew how they did that." "You mean," asked Bronson, "you don't use machine guns in your movies?"

My email server shouldn't have a size limit- will check.

Anyway, just send them here. Just pick the best couple of photos and send them full-res. I only need one good one.

Re: Anyone got good photos of the Ghost Ride The Whip penalty?

We got the "All Hail the Helmsman" Chinese Revolution penalty. I enjoyed it of all the others I saw it was one of the best. Only thing was I'm lazy and don't like to walk so that kinda disturbs me. The Rammstein one was halarious with all the German cars as well I didn't see any of the others.

Re: Anyone got good photos of the Ghost Ride The Whip penalty?

That was fun.  I enjoyed beating up my teammates.  Especially the one that hit the Miata and caused the penalty.

Got the Petty Cash shots of the guys moshing to Metallica. That's cool, but what I'm really hoping to get is some photos of the Starsky & The Bandit team dancing to "Ghost Ride The Whip." You'd recognize them anywhere (see above).
