My job as Operations Manager is first and foremost to provide support to our guys, while they\u2019re busy \u201cMaking Cool TV\u201d. It\u2019s always great to get out from behind the desk and remember how much hard work Go To Team Crews do and how much fun they have doing it!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I recently had the opportunity to visit Partner and Director of Photography, Skip Clark in Charlotte, NC and spend a day at track visiting our NASCAR clients, including FOX Sports. The FOX Sports crew is a remarkable organization that\u2019s taken our crews across the country for Races, Football, and even Monster Trucks.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve always thought of Skip as a Rock Star, but it\u2019s always good to be reminded why. Skip has the coolest toys and newest gear. I see the invoices and have a TV production background, but the gear he has is amazing not to mention what Skip can do with it. Skip\u2019s &#8220;Do Whatever it Takes&#8221; attitude hasn\u2019t changed in his 8 years with Go To Team and has been passed on to every single employee here. <a href=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/assets.gototeam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/12194343\/SkipBlog2-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5208121957383153170\" style=\"float: right; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; width: 320px; height: 166px;\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/assets.gototeam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/12194343\/SkipBlog2.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"188\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I had a great time meeting with our clients and crew members\u2026 putting faces with voices or emails. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s a corner of the track we didn\u2019t go to. I had the opportunity to see Fox\u2019s \u201cHollywood Hotel\u201d set, stand on top of the trailer in the infield, talk to Fox Anchor Jeff Hammond (and, a shout out to Danny Shull).<\/p><\/div>\n<div>While traveling up to the top of Lowe\u2019s VIP area we bumped into \u201cHumpy\u201d Wheeler who just retired as manager of the Speedway. What an honor on his last day. He was gracious, accommodating, and funny. A treat for someone who can appreciate his tremendous marketing efforts. Watching the pit crews work in the garage area made me think about the team aspect to NASCAR that we at Go To Team can appreciate.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the field for a day with Director of Photography, Skip Clark at Lowe\u2019s Motor Speedway.
