These are a couple of my favorites from a PCA DE track event last weekend at Summit Point Racetrack, in WV.

Nicely done. I'm so glad to see someone use a somewhat slow shutter speed and get some tire blur in the shot! Now if only the track "pro" who took pictures of me on Texas World Speedway would have done the same. :(

Thanks! I've learned some decent panning technique by going to the track on & off for that past 30 years. But for every good pan I get, there several too blurry ones. I love taking pictures at the track, but between driving myself, keeping the rest of the family's cars running, and instructing, I don't get much time to take pics. I was only able to take pics that weekend from the one corner close to the paddock. Summit Point has some other really nice vantage points I never seem to get to.
