bwhip62 Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #1 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing In 2008 I began making the transition from motorcycle roadracer to roadracing photographer (and part-time racer), and really learned a lot and improved my skills along the way. Here are some of my favorites from the year, all from Miller Motorsports Park in Utah - including the Masters of the Mountains club series, the AMA/WSBK races, and AHRMA races: #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 Jan 01, 2009 at 09:30 PM

jcmedeiros Offline Buy and Sell: On p.1 #6 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing Great shots. #13 is really fantastic. When I shot AMA Superbikes at MMP a couple of years ago there was never a day when the air was that clear. I am jealous of that one. Jan 02, 2009 at 06:29 AM

Those are the wild and wacky sidecars that were racing on the AHRMA weekend. They're really fun to watch, as the passenger (or "monkey") has to move all around to keep the vehicle from flipping over. Here are a couple more of those: Jan 02, 2009 at 03:18 PM

Tim Speciale Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #11 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing I always feel that knowing the sport helps photograph it. I don't know how well you know the sport, but i do know that you are pretty good at shooting these things http://www.thephotodictionary.com Jan 03, 2009 at 02:27 AM

Beau Arnold Offline Buy and Sell: On p.1 #12 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing lets do the math and I am guessing 5 races x $150=$750 race fee 5 races x $500=$2,500 tires 5 races x $100= $500 gas and misc expenses $3,750 Total or 1 sharp used 300 2.8is and a 1.4 converter good idea because unless you had a single digit number plate you made the right decision. great photo's.

Thanks! Although you're way low on the racing costs estimate - I race a couple of Ducatis, seven rounds, and travel from Idaho for each round! Of course, the 1D Mark III wasn't cheap, nor the cost of 400mm IS lens rentals, etc. Still, I've never had a 90 MPH "get-off" while shooting pics, as I have a few times on the bikes. Something to be said for that! No single digit plate, although I did pretty well this season. I won a bunch of races in various classes, and actually won the championship in the Super Twins class. In 2009 my plan is to race less and take more photos, but I'll still race a bit. It's just too much fun to completely stop. Jan 03, 2009 at 04:15 AM

Pehpsi Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #14 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing Wicked set, #13 is awesome.. Jan 03, 2009 at 08:04 AM

Leslie168 Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #15 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing I like # 11, 12 & 13, well done. Jan 04, 2009 at 10:38 AM

ShaunS Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #16 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing Some amazing shots! no. 1, 10 & 13 are my favourite but i think they're all fantastic. Jan 04, 2009 at 01:33 PM

croasdail Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #17 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing Love the multi-bike shots. The solo bike shots are really common place now, so catching real competition is so much more compelling to me. Well done at a venue where some of the sight lines are really long. Cheers.

Pete Klinger Offline Buy and Sell: On p.1 #18 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing Some folks insist that they aren't sidecars, they are a rig. (or a hack or a combination) I think if you call them a rig, the next question from the average person will be, "what's a rig"? Jan 06, 2009 at 08:21 AM

nhfirefighter Offline Image Upload: Off p.1 #19 · My Best of 2008 - Motorcycle Roadracing Very nice, Whipper! Jan 06, 2009 at 09:59 PM
