Not really sure where these belong? :rolleyes:

Shot on New Years day with 70-200, at ISO800 due to poor lighting.

Any panning shots as they rode by? That would be cool to see. Plus it would give a sense of motion. Looks like fun though.

Sorry, no panning shots, I was knelt on the finish line and had to jump out of the way as they crossed the line. Was fine for all carts except this one, when the guy deployed a MASSIVE parachute that was wider than the whole lane!! fortunately he realised that he was about to wipe out a load of people and released it before we were all scooped up!!! This was the shot I took before I realised what was about to happen!

Yes, the guy in the washing machine was fastest though. The best quote of the day was when they were looking at the back of his machine and realised he was on slow spin, and that he could have gone faster if he had chosen the fast spin!! :lol:

But that might have spilled his glass of water? ;)

Well done. Feels like I got to enjoy the good time they were having.
