I allways prefer the shots on the inside of a track from speedway, espec later in the eve with a dropped shutter.

With the light being so bright and thus the faster shutter they can just look parked.

Regarding the flashes, I know some riders comment on this and the white line, is there a certain point in the corner when people are told flash is ok, and up to then flash is requested not to be used?

#5 for me, nice composition and great colours

 

[G&A Images]

Great light in them and colours like #7 as best for me

 

[gribbsy]

Just to throw in another differing opinion #5 floats my boat out of these.

Flash is only allowed on the inside of the track, must not be used in any publis areas.

I have not had any complaints from riders in three and a bit years at Plymouth. Always try to avoid pointing it straight at the riders.

Very good set. 3,4,5 for me. Looks like you had some great light to play with

 

[njtruscott]

Light was good although a little harsh at times. Partly covering the track as in no. 5 made some great pics though.
