Interesting bike shot, considering you had to shoot through the fencing.

I'm absolutely amazed that someone would want to drag race his GSXR and his protective gear is limited to gloves, helmet, and jacket. He's wearing normal pants and sneakers on his lower half.

the shots I took with the fence i never thought would turn out,, but the camera stayed locked on the bike so it just blured it out. kind of a neat feel to it. Im not much a fan of street bikes but those guys where haulen.. I hope to get down with more daylight next time

ps.. I dont think any amount of protective gear would make me want to ride a rocket...

No a clue, I dont know anything about street bikes.. some one may chime in.

Curious what track this is at. Thanks

probably a track in kentucky

I figured that much!!! LOL would like to know more of the Camaro, looks like a car that could come run in our group.

These were taken at the Hardinsburg Raceway in Breckenridge co, KY. I was hoping to get back before the season ended, but ill do more next year once a friend of mine gets his car working. I man try to start a print service on my exposuremanger for these events. sadly this track is very poorly lit after dark..

Is that in Eastern KY? I havenet heard of it. We have a few cars in our group from western KY. All the tracks around have low lighting plus if you are facing the cars you are also facing the lights.

Hope this link works, you can see the track in satilite view. its out inthe country a bit. good place. the guy i went with that i work with does airbrush and has had a few jobs from there. next time I go to a track I hope to go during day time racing and get inside the fence on the start line to catch cool wheelstands. come on up some time next season.
