My record for quick turnaround was to shoot a mini car race from 9:00 AM
to 11 AM one morning late last summer; rush to my favorite one hour E-6
lab; run home to pick up cutter and mounting supplies while the film was
being developed; pick up the developed film; cut and mount in my car
(no, not while driving!); return to the track by 1:30 PM, and have
everyone in the infield looking at stereo slides from the morning's
heats.

O.K., who has a better one to tell? :-)
