Nice...love the wheels
Tell your photog to set his shutter speed to about 1/160th or 1/200th next time. It will cause just enough blur to the wheels to convey a sense of motion (as opposed to making the car appear to be frozen on the track), while still allowing enough sharpness for the car itself to remain sharp. Also requires one to pan with the car as it comes into the frame, but with a little a practice, it's not hard to master. _________________ erstwhile owner of just about every 924 variant ever made |

I think that the lean of the car shows speed. It's hard to get one to look like Shaggy going to and from the grocery store....unless the struts and shocks are totally fried.
Nice pic ! _________________ Matt

Nah, it just means the driver needs to lose some weight and install new shocks

Cool!!! You need some swaybars, though!
