heres a couple of pics, enjoy tilted images!

Nice pics Thai, Yeh there's that head on an angle again LOL. Cool to see that it was a free day is even better. I will onday get to something really exciting like that.
Cheers

Argh, *head explodes*. Notwithstanding that, quality pics as usual Thai!

I must say though that I find oval racing very exciting to watch, but I'm trying to think of a way of taking interesting photos of it, and I'm failing dismally. Your drift pics have much more 'action' and 'oomph' than these IMHO, but I can't see a way to change that.

Thanks for your comments John(like your rally stuff btw), MCWB.

yeah this oval racing is a bit different to drifting/circuit trackmeets.
panning didn't help too much here as the bg was pretty much grey or white billboards. tried to capture panning two cars into a shot which worked out ok. but i think i might try shooting for the outside instead next time. i could'nt find a cross point to do this today but will try next time.

Snazzy shots, surely some company would pay big bikkies for them?

I've never been to a car race in my life, should get to one I suppose, and all that after living in "Mecca" (Bathurst)! I'm just not a petrol head I suppose, but wonderful shots all the same.
