    Yes, there's a lot to like about this one.
    I'm not a fan of shooting with the camera tilted, often it's overdone - this isn't.
    Good motion blur, rear tyre almost legible so not too fast shutter speed, and shows that lifted inside wheel beautifully, focus in the right place too.
    The only thing I could wish for is the driver's face, or even a brightly coloured helmet.

    Thanks Paul, your comments are always welcome. I'm not a big fan of the tilt either, but I said "what the heck" and tried a few shots like that, I did do a little tweaking to the tilt in LR3. I also wish that i would have got more of the face, like you said.This year at the track the plain black helmets were popular, I personaly like the flashy helmets.
