We would like to thank the following people for being around racing and making a point of capturing history with their cameras. We have history to look back on because you had the vision to capture it for us:

David and Sasha Misco

David and Sasha are the official photographers for the Spears Southwest Tour Series and to my knowledge they have held this crucial job for several years now. They were both able to provide me with some awesome candid photos of everyone on the team as they were working in the pits during the course of the 2009 season. Some of these photos were nicely framed by David as well, and I would highly recommend that anyone who is interested in obtaining photos for themselves or for their respective teams to patronize the Misco's. David was also responsible for designing and producing the "hero cards" that M.K. hands out when we're at the races.  Anyone who is interested in viewing this card can find it at the bottom of the hero card section in the photo gallery on the front page. Please visit their websites at http://www.faninturn4.com and http://www.t4pix.com.

Earl Stubbs

Earl provided me with all of the photos from M.K.'s early racing endeavors at Ascot Park, and also offered me some very useful and interesting verbal memories from that time frame as well. Anyone interested in photographs ranging from Ascot Park to Southwest Tour to Toyota Speedway at Irwindale to anything else in his vast collection can reach him at (626) 926-3612.

Susan and David Stone a.k.a. Motorshooters Photography

Susan and David were around to cover the last few years of the Southwest Tour, and several years back I asked David if he could shoot some discreet photos of team members to use for this web site. Well I finally got around to using them...better late than never. I wonder if David recalls my small request. The picture of M.K. wearing the cowboy hat in the header section was taken by them.  Please visit their web site at http://motorshooters.com/.

Pam Tice

Pam Tice was the photographer for the tour at least during the mid to late '90's. Some of the pictures I have from that time were taken by her. As of right now I haven't confirmed whether the phone information on the backs of those photos is still good or not; however her photos will still get credit where credit is due.

Dave and Renee Farr a.k.a. Farr Motorsports Photography

Even though the Farr's have been around racing for a long time, I only got the chance to meet them recently. For some reason their photos have mysteriously made it into the race car hauler on occasion while at the races, so I called the number on the back only to find that they're practically next door neighbors of mine. The Farr's have a vast collection of photos ranging from Tour to Craftsman Trucks to Busch and Cup.

Janet and Charly at Racing West

Janet and Charly have been covering racing on the west coast for as long as I can remember, and the web site they run is the one I go to most often when it comes to keeping up with what's going on out here. We used a photo of M.K. in the header section above that was snapped by Charly in 2005 at Infineon Raceway. Please visit their site at http://www.racingwest.com/.
