For 4 years I used to help my friend shooting at the Cart Races.(Vancouver,Portland,Long Beach) I had some credentials,but not the B pass required to get me into the Pit stop area.However having his camera gear and a few lenses did the trick. Only the last year I got caught ,because I got carried away staring up into the crowd at a friend. The official kind of picked me out,because the photographers usually don't stare around with blank looks.
