Damn Daniel, I love those shots of the Camaro and the Fairlane, nice work! I guess I'll stop entering pics in the photo contest, you guys have me beat! That Fairlane is a '66 I believe, I wanted one of those so badly when I graduated high school................

Great shots Daniel!
For me, the only comment I have would be the font of your watermark. I guess it doesn't appeal to me... I see alot of n00bs use script the wrong way so now it leaves an itch in my head.

The shots look good. The only thing I hate about shooting drag racing is that freakin' wall gets in the way all the time. It depends upon the safety guys at the strip but if you ask, they'll often let you get behind the cars like this
http://asphoto.smugmug.com/photos/14..._KtcmJ-L-7.jpg Also, if you have a pretty good zoom lens, you can try and shoot over the wall at the far lane like this: http://asphoto.smugmug.com/photos/17..._xy5tD-L-6.jpg Nice panning work man. Love the SS shot  Last edited by zx11pilot : 08-25-2008 at 06:47 AM.

Nice shots, especially #4 & #6. I can almost smell the rubber...
Brings back memories of shooting at the drags in the early '70's with my trusty Ricoh SLR. One of these days I need to dig out all of the slides I shot in those days and scan some - I haven't looked at them in something like 25 years.

Thanks bro. I hear you on the wall getting in the way. I could have climbed up on the stands and get it out of the way, but I wanted a "sea-level" view of the cars. I hate those drag shots from up above. I will definitely try and see if they'll let me get behind the launch pad next time. P.S. Your first shot above is awesome!

Cool video BTW... It was pretty funny seeing hot a$$ looking cars on the left lane vs. ugly a$$ looking cars in the right lane...
