Checking out the Martinsville Prerace

Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, also known as Virginia Tech, sent their mascot and marching band to participate in the pre-race activities. The band marched the circuit of the track and did a nice job with the national anthem.

We were nice and close to the track and allowed to get right down to shoot photos through the chain link. These two shots, Kyle Busch and Tony Steward on the left and Virginia native Denny Hamlin and Aric Alimirola were nice to capture.
