Talk about time compression. Gotta say, nice to get in n' out in 2 days, though.
Here are a few favorites.

They're awful. Too much haze... lousy angle. I have some front stretch shots from inside one that I like much better. They use the haze and give a mirage like look... the start stuff was "meh."

ROTFLMAO - I KNEW you'd be a sucker for these the minute I downloaded them. Thanks.

Yep, you're that predictable in your quest for the clearest low shutter speed shot in history. I just know you harbor a secret desire to shoot at 1/0 but it's mathematically impossible. ;)
JT,
I like the same three myself but the #4 BMW shot is the most powerful of the group. It's great to see the car at speed and competitive after Sebring. Only 17 cars at St. Pete?
Any Indy car shots coming from Sunday?

Isnt 1/0 =1 second?
Nice shots as always, John. I like #4 &5, but 6 doesnt do it for me.
I also am digging the red stoplights in #7.

I like 7 and the red lights. Nice capture.
1/30 with the 500. Steller!

yeah i guess that would be 1/1 = 1... LOL! Math OWNS me.
John-
Well, afer the tehnical problems at Sebring, I wasnt sure if the Mazdas made it back out so soon. That and I did see any pics of them in your post... so I thought I'd ask.
I saw them in another post though.

1/1 = 1
1/0 = doesn't exist or isn't possible because "1/0 is said to be undefined because division is defined in terms of
multiplication. a/b = x is defined to mean that b*x = a. There is no x such that 0*x = 1, since 0*x = 0 for all x. Thus 1/0 does not exist, or is not defined, or is undefined." (from Ask Dr. Math http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/55764.html). Somewhere I've also seen 1/0 = infinity. And you were trying so hard to forget all that stuff you learned in Algebra. :confused:
Therefore, Chris is trying to achieve the impossible, but it's great fun to watch. "To Iinfinity, and beyond...!"

Hmmm, come to think of it, guess I haven't seen much in the way of fenderless cars from your direction...

4 is sublime! I would perhaps prefer 5 if the car were not in the centre, still a great set though!
