Racing

I got the photography bug when I first started taking photos of cars at the local autocross. Here are a few from the latest time trials with a photo of my car thrown in.

The last car set a record for SCCA Track Trials at Nashville with 181 mph down the front straight. He was by far the hardest car to shoot down that portion of the track.

Nice!!

That 3rd one looks like a toy, haha.

Now you need to figure out how to keep the car sharp and blur the background.

It is a toy just on a larger scale!

I'm not sure how people get those shots where they are 3/4 with the car sharp and background blurred but I can do it on a full side shot.
