Default C1 Corvette Drag Car

Just one shot from the drag strip last weekend, let me know what you think! Sun flare is 100% real, by the way.

EDIT: Some people from other sources have said that they wanted to see a level crop. I've tried it, and it doesn't look right to me.

Thats because thats the non level crop Al..

Thats an amazing photo, the flare and panning work so well.

Thanks guys! Shooting into the sun was causing some problems that night, but it worked out well for this shot. Which is good, because this was probably the coolest car there.
