I've gotten some great reception here and on a few other forums in the past, so I'll just keep with the tradition and post up some of my favorite images from JGTC.

JGTC was incredible to watch - the technology behind these vehicles is positively astounding! Although I did feel the setup for D1 was, well, "different." If anything, it was safer - but also high speed, but not comparable to past events at Irwindale IMO.

Pix were taken with Canon EOS20D & Digital Rebel + a variety of lenses, mostly the 18-55 and the 70-200 IS.

Special thanks goes out to Sport Z Magazine for allowing me the opportunity to shoot portions of the event for them.

If anyone is interested in high res versions, or would like to inquire about commercial use, feel free to email me at: friscomgm AT yahoo.com

Enjoy!

Comments, criticisms, tips, etc are welcome! I am constantly trying to improve my photography skills so feel free to voice your input!

Just following up on this thread - many thanks for the continuing compliments and views - I've switched web hosts to accommodate add'l bandwidth and even added a wallpaper section to my site which I'll be adding more to soon.

For now enjoy a few high res wallpapers I have upped, including shots like these:
