Nice Set.
I like 5 with the exhaust flame.
What's the deal with #2 on the Rx-8 with no doors?? :confused:

Here's an excerpt from Motorsport.com on the Speedsource Mazda.

"Tremblay worked up to 13th place before handing the car over to Jonathan Bomarito.The team gained another position before being punted off track by a fellow GT competitor. The contact sent the #70 nose first into the Armco. The impact caused significant driver’s side bodywork damage. A brief stay on pit lane was required to remove both left side doors before Bomarito could return to the track. Once back on course, he continued running consistent lap times and benefiting from other team’s misfortunes. The #70 Castrol ModSpace MazdaSpeed RX-8 GT car would take the checkered flag in 11th position."

#1 is really nice!
#6 I think I would rather see the car in the bottom right corner of the frame.

these add to the strong images you posted in the Crit thread...great set. I am going to miss the flamethrowing RX-8's next year...I was kinda sad to see the end of the 2012 season and the end of the RX-8 days.
