Very cool point of view with the shutes popping. I bet you could sell some of these to the drivers. I like # 2 best, just a slightly different angle, it shows a little bit more of the side of the car.

Excellent angle...... Way cool look just as the chute was pulled and before it fully opened. Milan has a 500' rule, just like the NHRA, so I would need to either use a ladder or setup a camera on a tripod and remote trigger it........
