I just found out the the ice racing (cars) this winter doesn't allow spectators to attend, just the drivers

*sigh* Extremely disappointed, was really hoping to go watch/photograph :( Just the story of my life...
 
Go volunteer as the staff photographer. Make a point of assuring them you won't get hit, and show some superior work of the lads in action.

I am going to reach out to a friend of mine, but who is also a far better photographer than me and involved with the host club for many years... I'm just the rookie this time around with this one...
 
I used to ask a friendly small town newspaper for press credentials with the promise I would write them an article. A small newspaper seems to appreciate that kind of assistance.
 
Man, you do a lot of close-up work with a wide-angle lens. Do you REALLY want to be in the middle of out of control cars on the ice with that setup? If you're serious about capturing the event, borrow my R5, a tripod, and my Sigma 650mm with the 1.4x multiplier so you can photograph the vehicles from out of harm's way. I totally get where you're coming from, but I'm rather fond of you and do not wish to see you squished under a riced-up Subaru on a cold day.

I do own a long lens too, just don't use it too often, and sadly it's not an F/2.8, but still a long lens
