Oh, Road America's a great circuit alright! Hard to say what it compares to here, but it has a great flow and so many top viewing spots. It's near Elkhart Lake in Wisconsin (around three hours from Chicago or roughly half that from Milwaukee).

Hmm lovely colours and unusual angle. Guess the track is a gem for locations :)

That it most certainly is. Road America has gone straight onto the podium of my favourite tracks...

Great shot, i really love your approach to your motor sport shots, they are not just recording the event but they put so much emotion and excitement and mood into them, as well as allowing there to be some negative space in front of the car to make it going "somewhere" well done and 140mm you must of been close to the track or have you cropped in ?

Thanks ever so much for the kind words. I'm really pleased you rate my work so highly! :thanks:

As for being close, I've never been to a track that allows such great vantage points in so many places - and relatively close to the tarmac. Road America really is a wonderful facility.

Thanks. I'm just glad I managed to get a couple of good Team Oz shots. They seemed to not want to be snapped over the course of the weekend for whatever reason...
