There were 12 photographers in turns 1&2 (there's no fence there) so I took my ladder down to turns 3&4 and shot from there. I figured why take the same shot as all the rest.
Thanks for looking, C&C welcomed!

That's a good point. But you don't necessarily have to be standing next to a guy to get the same shots he/she gets. You are very good at the panned shot of the car sliding through the curve but I would challenge you to start looking beyond that and expand your horizons.
Don't get me wrong. You are doing fine the way you are. I just want to give you some food for thought for your upcoming season and maybe push you to look a little harder for something different every time you go out to shoot.
Next time I'm in Florida Paul, Ill shoot the local ladies shuffleboard league in the retirement community my parents live in. Ill remember to stay low and crop tight.
@Marty - Thanks, I need to get pushed! I have gone out and climbed hills, gotten on top of the flag stand, laid in the dirt to get the under car shot. But when I look at my shots I just am not catching what I am wanting to and they are mediocre at best. I am still trying and thank you. (btw, love your shots)
@ACNYPhoto - We were having heavy clouds passing over the sun, some times it was deep shadows and then the very next instance bright sunshine. I should have been quicker on changing my camera set up for sure.
@Paul - I just love it! One day, after shooting some of the kid's sports and they turn out at least half way decent I will have something for you to comment on. I really like your critiques and know they are extremely helpful.
@ Marty I agree 100%. I'd love to get down to GA some day to shoot your flavor of dirt track racing. I'm from PA/MD and we have a wealth of tracks, but the Southern tracks seem like a completely different world from ours.
