•F•A•Q•

• My company is interested in reproduction rights for one or more of your images. What should I do?
    That's simple! Just click here to send us an email or call (626) 330-2906. Let it ring 'till something happens ... it forwards to our cell phone to catch us wherever we are (just like email!). We'll work out the details on getting a copy of the image file(s) to you or directly to your printing company


• I want to print my own pictures on my computer. Can I get a copy of the image file?

    Sorry, files are distributed only for mass reproduction purposes, not for individual printing. Besides, the prints we sell are real photographs, a quality product made via a photo/chemical process on normal light sensitive photographic paper, not just a home computer printer picture.


• From looking at the sample images on the site, how will I know what a finished print will look like?

    While switching to digital from film, we have been able to maintain our usual high quality. In fact, in instances where digital manipulation helps, even better photographs can be made from digital images than could ever be made from film.

    Think of the images you view here on this site as 4x6 inch prints showing the whole negative. When enlargement photographs are made, at least part of the width will be cropped out.

    As with "old fashioned" photos from film, images will be cropped to fit the photograph sizes being ordered. With today's high tech digital laser photographic printers, the quality is as good as (sometimes better than) photographs made from film.

    Generally photographs will be sent directly from the lab to you. In any case, your satisfaction is guaranteed or the photographs will be remade. If you are not satisfied, contact us as soon as you receive your shipment so we can arrange to have the lab make your corrected order.


• Okay, I'm ready to order. How does that work?

    Ordering products is restricted to those involved with a car or those pictured in the image being ordered. Because of this, ordering and payment functions have been separated.

    When we receive your order, once we determine we can provide service to you, we will bill you via email. Once the lab has received notification of payment (within a day if paid by credit card), they will process your order and ship directly to you using the type of shipment you have requested (overnight or second day air). In most cases the order will ship the second business day after the lab begins work.

    The lab cannot ship COD so payment must be arranged when ordering.

    payment options are avilable on emailed invoices.


• But I only see winner pictures now. What about other pictures.

    Our plan is to place winner images on the site as soon as possible after an event with any other images available within a couple more days. Of course, travel and travel delays may slow the process, but we'll always have the winner images available first.

    In the past few years we have cut down on the number of "car shots" we have taken because there simply wasn't enough time between races to have all of the film processed and printed, get the shots entered into the computer, make and attach labels, sort the prints, then package them for mailing. We're hoping that this new system will allow us to again shoot more cars while providing enlargements in a timely manor.


Thanks for asking!
