    I loved all of them, but #7 and #10 stuck out the most. #7 had a TUX sticker, as a Linux user, it has to be my favourite.

    It is amazing how those bikes stick at such a low angle. I knew a racer in Vegas, told me his tires are pre-heated just before the race and they last 20 laps. Nice shots.

    The high level guys use slicks too, which offer even more stickiness. They can get some insane lean angles.

    WOW, insane leans.. I think they need rollers on the knee pads, do they change their knee pads when they get fresh tires....

    Thanks for sharing...

    The pic above is how the pros do it. Bike and rider in tack sharp focus, everything else blurry. I was not able to accomplish that on most of my shots.

    Sweet pics, man!!! clap.gif They look Pro all the way. What set up are you using??? I need to invest in whatever you are using! I will be shooting the races myself..... but I am also a Racer too. Busy days at the track for me!!!

    Here are a few shots of me. I have races in 2 weeks so I may be handing my brand new D300S off to someone to get some more shots. i wanna be shot with my own set up. haha

    Nice job on the shots! I like 3, 5, 6, 9 the best. I'm curious about your setup/lenses as well. :)

    FocusPhoto... Which races are you running in? I'm going to be shooting up at Road America on the Friday/Saturday of the AMA weekend.

    I'm just doing club races here in St. Louis this year. I can't afford to run any CCS. :( I'll be shooting the CCS races here at Gateway in a few weeks though. I gotta deal with the bike, racing, and on and off track photos... awards presentations ect ect. lol I'm gonna be our club photographer and I'm diving right into all of this with my brand new D300S. lol What do you shoot with what lenses do you like?
