Nopi Drift is in town this weekend and I'm gonna lug my camera around. Have shot plenty of cars...that don't move but any tips for moving cars would be great. I'm bring my Tammy 17-50 and borrowing either my cousin's 28-135 or uncle's 70-200 2.8. What would you suggest? Thanks...will post after the show.

The last drift event i went to with my camera was HIN San Diego, i had my kit lens and 85. Neither of them really gave me the range i needed. I'd definitely bring along the 70-200 so you can get good pictures even when the car is on the other side of the track.
