Sorry these are not all in the stadium. I wanted a few different shots.

Took this shot, and then ran as fast I could to get into the stadium before the finish and eventually gold.

100 views/24 hours and nothing? Are they that bad? Can anybody help me get better?

1. this one is a good catch with some good motion but appears a little soft to me.
2. little oof and the horizons are bothering me. Yes the car is level but the background is not and I don't know which one is right.
3. this one is the best of the set. Nice action.
the other street shots are a bit oof to me.
The last one is really nice of Pastrana celebrating.

Were the cars doing doubles? I haven't seen any coverage of the X games yet and it looks like it in your pics!
Pastrana is one talented young man. 2 wheels or 4.

What do you mean by doubles? If I think you mean on/off road then yes. They would do a lap in the stadium, go out of the stadium (very cool btw) do a stint on road, do the opposite side of the track, head back outside (opposite side still) and then back into the stadium.

As per suggestion, I have fixed the horizon on my favorite pic, and do like the outcome much much better. I hope you do as well.
