I like the angles in the last two, but would have cropped them differently (with a little more space for the cars to move 'into').

I can't believe you finally posted pics. :)

I am in the same spot on all of them :lol: I had to put the lens in the fence :lol:

The only one that is cropped is the NOS one :(
I just wasnt prepared enough. I never shot through a fence before.

They kept announcing it was on the internet. I am sure you had a better warmer view than I did. I thought that would have been an early morning by the time you went to bed. How did it look online?

I have more of Ken and one out of the car when he was signing autographs. It was really weird shooting under the lights. It is a circle nascar style track. The banked oval was lit up well but the infield was way darker. You can kind of see it here. Same pavement same white barrels

I do not know anything about that. I would imagine so, but going against block and faust, I would have left it RWD :lol:
