These photos are the pits! (ha)

They look pretty good. At the first big race at TMS (Winston Cup at the time), I had pit/garage/infield press passes and got some decent shots. But from where you were, you could actually see what was going on. Good work.

Thanks. I had some decent seats (wish I could have been in the pits) but I sure wish I had had MUCH better glass...or maybe knowing how to use what I have better?

You did good and you got the driver everyone's excited about (#20). The only suggestion I'd make for next time is to watch your timing on the pit shots. You can get the crew running to the right side or from the right to the left side of the car and it tends to increase the action in the shot.

Never a bad day at the track.

Joe

Thanks for the advice Joe. I went back and looked at my photos and in all of my pit shots I either have the pit crew working on the right side of the car or a clear shot of the car....none of the pit crew moving to or from the right side. Ill have to keep that in mind for my next attempt.
