Pensacola, FL - Drag Racing w/ 7D

[boost_dependent]

This is the first time I have tried shooting drag racing. I was just doing this for fun and only had about 2 hrs there until I had to go to work. So, yeah just as I was figuring everything out I had to leave.

Let me tell you though, this 7D 8fps is nutz! I had around 1600 shots in that short time. I chose to upload almost 70 photos to Flickr. It's really difficult for to choose my best 8 of the bunch (I'm my own worst critic), but I'll give it a go.
