A little time and you'll get some.

Lucky timing on the second one huh? I like it...well, the background could have been a bit better but I know sometimes you don't have a choice. Were is this track located?

Nice shots.

Kart crashes are difficult.
You're zoomed up tight to frame the shot nicely and all of a sudden one kart has jumped 3 feet straight up out of the frame :D

Nice captures Greg. In #1 that's what is bound to happen if the carts go round the track in different directions!!

Nice captures. It’s not too uncommon to catch the “eyes closed” shot in motorsport. Even race drivers have to blink from time to time.

Here’s one I got at a tarmac rally earlier in the year http://gallery.ukmotor​sportpics.com/p2560522​4.html (external link) Note the somewhat bitchy comment from a fellow competitor which has been posted at the bottom of the screen.
