Trackdays brad you turn up and snap.
no fee to pay unless on the track, they dont let you have a media pass because theres a REALLY REALLY SHIT company who take the pics with 1/1000 shutter speeds lol!
Jim, full image doesnt come for me, hence rear crop (no inlarge box either)

Ads are your pics edited? As i have just been looking through someone's gallery on TP of there Sigma 70-200. They done seem as sharp Although they are un-edited.

matt how often do we need to tell you that its the photographer usually thats the problem.
Look at the shots on the link. They are badly framed/cropped, look badly exposed etc etc......
Buying good glass wont fix the problem if you cant take a photo

They are not mine i was just trying to have a look at some examples and querieng what i have found.
I understand its the photographer that takes the picture and is in control!
I just was asking if Ads had edited his at all. (Can i ask how you edit your pictures?)
