Speedway... it's all about racing...

These speedway guys really give it their all! I've been trying for a couple of months now to capture the intensity of the racing... it's not always easy. Here are some of tonight's tussles at the track...

Those are great shots, shots I only dream of being able to take. Would you mind supplying some shooting data, such as lens, shutter speed, tripod/monopod use, etc?


Thanks.

Great series of images. I always enjoy your Speedway posts :)

I love the way you get the shots of them sliding at the same time... great shots as usual!

Great shots, but you have some funky banding going on there? What camera? What firmware?

Cheers Jim! I think the banding you're referring to is an OOF spectator fence in the background! But I have to say that the effect is uncannily like my original 1D used to produce at ISO3200 before the later firmware updates!
