I'm something of a motorsports fan, although I haven't been to a race in years, and I've never been to a drag race, although I'd like to. Burnout shots are great, as are any other motorsports on-track shots. I love them all, no matter what the sport. I guess I was just speaking to my expectations, and how pleasantly surprised to see that you presented something that I hadn't expected. Again, a wonderful, wonderful photo essay! cheers, frank -- "The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true." -J. Robert Oppenheimer
