Ford 400 - Homestead-Miami Speedway: 11/22

History was made at the Ford 400 when Jimmie Johnson #48 broke a NASCAR record and became the first race car driver to win 4 consecutive Sprint Cup titles.

The Ford 400 was my first time ever attending a NASCAR race and what a blast it was to be able to photograph the experience!

I don't care what anyone says, I never really thought I'd like NASCAR too much until I attended the race yesterday. I had a REALLY good time, maybe it's just because I was photographing the event but genuinely, the fans are HARDCORE about NASCAR and there's no denying that. As drunk and belligerent some of them may be, I'll be damned but they LOVE that sport.

Here was my view while photographing the race:
