Kart club day racing (8 pics)

DaleP · 30th of May 2006 (Tue)

Went out to the Go-Kart track where I used to race and had some shooting practice. I was lucky as one of the gates to the infield was left open. I didn't venture through it, but did stand in the opening to get some clear shots without any fencing in the way.

Here are some of the pics I've processed so far.

Great shots! The 3rd one looks like a bumpy ride......

DaleP · 30th of May 2006 (Tue)

Thanks. Yeah lucky for that guy it was just a bump. Unlike one poor kid earlier in the day that was taken to hospital after being catapulted out of his kart.

I've gone through some more pics, which are here... http://daleporter.customer.netspace.net.au/karts.htm . Still have about 200 photos to go through and sort! Was a good day.

I like the framing but they dont convey a sense of speed.

DaleP · 30th of May 2006 (Tue)

Yeah, this was only my 2nd outing taking motorsport pics, so I concentrated on a fast shutter speed to get sharp pics. I thought better to get that right first and then try to get better speed-conveying shots another trip.

OK. Finally finished sorting all my pics from last weekend.

This one turned out to be a nice surprise with the rear wheels off the deck on both karts.

Cool shots. I like the last one you posted. To bad you had to shoot over the fence. A lower angle would have looked cool on that one.
