    I am glad you had the opportunity to come out and shoot at the track, maybe next we can go and shoot something.

    The first shot from dega conveys a lot, the only deal missing is the feeling in your feet as the pack of cars or trucks go by!

    Nice shots. Where the bottom image cars moving? If so, they're really frozen by a fast SS.

    Beautiful series of images. It is not easy to take pictures of this kind, you have a good glance and I see that you can have access to privileged positions. I live near Imola where he has run for many years with the F1 and also with the GP1 and 500 motorcycles and unfortunately there was no way to go in good locations to take pictures. In the audience with little opportunity to move were not very good. Also when I went to the camp moto cross my city where races are held world championship

    Grazie! I love shooting race photography, a media pass allows for great access to the bikes and cars. Take a look at my website sometime, The only one missing from my site is Valentino Rossi! Maybe some day

    Buon Natale e Felice Anno Nuovo!

    The NASCAR shot makes me home sick, for the feeling of thunder in the gut, and the scent of burning rubber, oil, and gas. Fantastic shot of a high speed draft, specially for as close as you were.

    Thanks! Have fun! I dont know if thats like a media pass, but be sure to not be in a hurry. Hot Pit was a nightmare. If you get to see the Truck Series it will totally make up for it lol I had a great time shooting the oit crews too. Cant wait to see your pics! More of mine are on my site.
