Casey,

You have the Canon 70-200 F/4 right? Is that the lens you're using in these photos?

BTW, I like the different angle on this one.

The first pic is my favorite of the three. (They're all still great pics.)
What I like about the first one is the sense of speed, especially with the antenna appearing to hang on for dear life!
The three blurred MINIs in the background are a cool extra.

70-200 f4l - correct - would really love to get a 300 prime - but then again I do want to stay happily married....maybe soon a 100-400L. At the track there was only a few spots I could get good shots where the car would fill a good chunk of the frame at 200mm...an extra 100 or 200 would have been very helpful in getting some more angles and different corners.

Yup - that is the big reason I like these 3 photos over the others I got was the Blurred MINIs in the background - really adds alot I think to the photo.

I know what you mean. I have been looking at a 300mm F/2.8

Also, I agree with what you both have said about the first picture being the best. Nice work Casey.
