    Great stuff!!!

    Some of the best I've seen.

    Who were you shooting for? Magazine, on line, or just yourself? Must have been quite a setup.

    Can you post more, with some info as to what/how you shot these, 'cause no BS these are GREAT SHOTS of professional quality.

    thanks for the comments. i actually shot these hand held(forgot my monopod!), over about three rows of other amatuers. most on my tip-toes. i was shooting through the pro photags fence hole, which was about 20 feet away. Very limited line of site. i didn't think any of them would come out when i was shooting. but, i got about 50 good ones! I shoot for myself.

    all the close up car shots are on turn 10

    camera info:
    Canon 20d
    70-200is
    1.4 extender

    Most shot in raw at:
    1/2000-5000
    f2.8-4
    iso 200
    all pics posted here are down-rezed compressed jpeg.

    sure thing. I can do some pretty cool things with the program.

    I will do some work on them, burn the updated pics on a disk and send you a copy.

    I will private message an address.

    Old men can jump, more importantly. Needless to say, that guy is in incredible shape. Jeff Gordon was talking about it prior to Schumi tossing Massa around like a 1-year old.

    I should clarify that I didn't take either of those pictures. They were both posted on this site, but I think they're both great shots.

    Yeah on my laptop I could tilt the screen and see it easily, but on my desktop it is hard to see me. You can see my pass around my neck easiest. Here I am :) LOL, I guess basically the only thing you can see is a white recrangle floating on a black background...thats my pass.
