We welcome photographers to our events according to their registration with ChampCar and agree to our standards and policies.

ChumpCar International Inc. does not compensate any photographer for their services at the track. All profits will be derived from direct sales to our race teams and their friends and families.

ChumpCar International Inc. will be pleased to distribute marketing materials you provide for your company or small business through social media and in print advertising at the track, should that be requested. It could benefit you and generate sales on your behalf.

ChumpCar International Inc. requests licensing of your photos be granted to us through a Creative Commons license. Regarding this licensing, we request Attribution, allowing us to distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon your work for promotional and commercial marketing. We will credit you or your company for all work used in exchange for this licensing privilege. Example: Low-resolution web images of 1500 px wide for use on our webpage or social media platforms.

Some venues may require a separate licensing contract and media credentials. (VIR Photo Media Page)

You will be notified by the event director or the media director if there are additional requirements. Some event venues may have additional licensing fees for broadcast productions (ISC-owned facilities). For more information, email media@champcar.org.
