I was their, It was a great day, but it was hot. I was shooting with the 70-200 F2.8 IS lens and my 10-22mm at the pits. But you had a better spot to takes pics from cliff666. I did the best I could yesterday, but a lot of the drifting pics had the fence in the pic.

If am correct, you were the guy that was taking some pics of some models and some dumb guy was trying to get in the pic. It was you and a friend of yours. If this is true, I was right next to you. This was happening between 3:00pm-5:00pm. Also, I was in the stands with the rest of the crowd , I wish I was taking pics, where you were standing.

Wow! Nice pictures! I was there, and infact, i was probably a few feet away from you when they were announcing the winners at the podium. I was at the stands during the event. How were you able to take pics from the photographer spot? My shots came out horrible.

i was working for rixmag that weekend since my friend was their MC they needed a photographer for that event and i jumped all over on a chance to get myself a media pass. Ive always loved drag/drift evens when i used to participate in them but since i dont race anymore those who cant race, tech or take pictures :).

yes i do use photoshop cs3, i am a saturation and contrast whore :lol: lolol. unless its for coverage the shots i gave to the magazine were just sharpened and auto toned in batch process using Digi photo pro from canon itself. but ussually for my own individual processing i try to make it pop a bit more :) hopefully its working.

i think you've pinpointed me! my friend on my left was using an L lens (it might be the 70-200mm or the 300mm, plus he was also using an extender) and my friend on my right was using a 55-135mm lense i think.. they're shots came out amazing!!
heres an upclose pic of my friend's L lense http://photos.l3.facebook.com/photos-l3-snc1/v263/142/25/68704275/n68704275_30689910_5832.jpg
i was using the Canon kit lens that day. i almost didn't bring my camera to begin with because it was so hot and i had water to carry but my boyfriend convinced me at the end. i'm glad he did! but i really wish i brought better lenses with me.
was this the pic you spotted me in? (i hope we're allowed to post other people's pic here... eek)

Nice job. I like to see a tighter crop on the second one, it is a bit center IMO. Less room for the car to move into, the tire smoke will then have a greater impact.

I'm glad the internet can bring us together off the track this way too. And yes, I use an EF 70-200mm f2.8 (non-IS). Had a 1.4x TC that came in handy a few times during the weekend also.
