Nice series with some very good pans...Like the Audi in the first shot and the capture of the crew, the official, and the TV guy are great...

#1 the WB is off, too much toward the magenta side.
#2 is soft, I know that you were trying to go slow with the pan, but its not sharp enough for me.
#3 is a better pan, sharper.
#8 had the most potential except for the pole splitting the left side. I like this one more anyway, because it at least has a feature that tells me you were at LRP. It is such a famous track, the first four give no clue where they were taken, it could have been any track, there is no point of reference...just too tight for the whole set to be the same shot I guess. Especially given the fall color that was visible for the race...i watched it on TV...there could be some great shots to show that, the track AND the cars.

Travis,
Are you thanking me for voting for your MA early this morning.
I have 1100 photos to review and will post more IF my wife stops suggesting tasks I might consider.
Mummmmmms are next on the list

I had no way of knowing you voted for me...I appreciate it. Motorsports is a huge passion for me..both as a driver and a photog. Sorry if my crits came off too strong.

Travis,
I am breaking your chops. Thank you noticing and commenting.
In 57 years, this was my second race and we were playing.
1100 shots x 10lbs = a workout.
All hand held

No worries. I know, its a workout, a typical weekend for me is 5K frames, done with a gripped 7D with a 70-200, then the gripped 50D with a 400mm mounted...I typically walk 3-4 miles a day too...but I still love doing it. Have a big weekend next weekend.

Travis
Last year we took the 400L 2.8 for two 100+ degree days in August and found it was too long for the track.
The 28-300L IS was an excellent one lens solution and this was just a day trip.
The 70-200L IS II produced the sharpest shots at 1/100. Photo and crop below.
Have a great weekend.

you are right, the 28-300L is a good one lens option, I used one for the first 4 years I shot Motorsports...but the 70-200 MkI and MKII are far better suited for the task, lighter and the images are far superior.
