Great shots!

Did you have any problem keeping the 10D dry?

The second series during the sun are outstanding considering shooting through a fence. It really does not show up that much, until you mentioned it it was not that noticable.

thanks for posting the Foster girls, they're at least as good looking as the cars! :)

I wrapped a plasic bag around the lens and taped it up, used another plastic bag over the top of 10D and kept drying it with a face washer. All shots were taken through fence and did not show up in overcast & wet conditions.

Nice. were you at max zoom? and how difficult was it to pan at max zoom? I heard aussie girls are <ahem> <ahem> ;)

The panning shots were dificult as I only had a small area to take picture because of posts in front of me and they were all taken at full zoom. The more shots you take the better you get and I have taken a lot of motor sport pictures before.
