can't wait till I get home for the contest section

Pics aren't bad...my only comments would be to get lower when shooting the cars and use a wide angle for the drag stuff. There's a ton of the 1/4 shot (front fender type deal) and not enough side on stuff. You still get the concept of motion and it's a hell of a lot easier to get more of the car in focus when you're shooting the side of it than from the 1/4 you've nailed. I've got some examples and settings I've used at home...PM me if you'd like.
