Nice shots . Know what you mean about the sun, last three races I've been too it needed ISO 800 to get anything workable at all.

Excellent stuff. #1 and #2 are my faves - the latter has a nice composition. Also, a good choice of shutter speed.

Would it be "better" (photographically speaking) if the fence were croped out? Or does that give us a frame of refernce as to how high he is?

I like bright colors and these certainly have that. #2 is my favorite. I love the low angle and composition.
