Anybody here shoot at their local Saturday night dirt track?

I'd really like to get into shooting some racing and get experience panning. Most tracks around me are dirt tracks that only allow crew and track photographers in the infield. I've reach out via social media to both photographers at my two closest tracks about a month ago and haven't gotten a response yet. I do have one local track that is pavement track that allows spectators into the infield. I'll be going their August 12th and am really looking forward to it. Other then mega tracks like Indianapolis Motor Speedway, I don't know where else to go to try and learn, other then local dirt tracks.

Which brings me to my main question. I could always shoot from outside the track but that means all dirt and debris is flying my way. Lol and something about getting my baby all dusty scares the crap outta me. So didn't know if anyone had any tips or suggestions

Thanks,
Jeffrey

In dirty conditions I shoot with a rain jacket on my camera and lens. On the end of the lens I use a UV filter to protect the glass.
