Salem, IN (March 1, 2005) - Longtime followers of the Midwestern-based Champion Racing Association (CRA) Super Series for Late Models, Bob Milner and Scot French have joined together to become the official photographers for CRA in 2005. The two have been independent photojournalists covering the series since it began in 1997.

"Scot and I are thrilled to have this opportunity with CRA," noted Milner. "It has always been a favorite series for both of us, but timing and scheduling had never allowed us to actually be able to provide consistent photo service to CRA. We’re really looking forward to this."

Both photographers have substantial experience in the area of motorsports photography. French has been behind the camera for 26 years. A track photographer at Flat Rock Speedway for 5 years, he began to pursue traveling series such as ASA, ICEMAN, and the MAIN EVENT, before becoming involved with CRA.

Milner’s photographic experience spans over 20 years; from Indy Cars, pro drag racing, to his real passion: short track stock cars. In recent years, he has provided photographic services to ASA and is a regular contributing photographer to Speed51.com, as well as a variety of racing news publications.

Milner and French view their photography as an art-form, not just photo journalism. Utilizing state-of-the-art equipment, they will be providing CRA officials, its competitors, sponsors and fan with outstanding photo imagery and media coverage, including imagery for the series website: www.craracing.net.

The new "Official Photographers" will see their first action of the year when the CRA Super Series opens its season at Anderson Speedway on Saturday, April 16.  To contact the new photographers, interested parties can email them at photographers@craracing.net.
