Nice shot Skip. Noisy at the office - eh? ;^) I like how there is a natural line formed from the front of the car, thru the pit crew guys on the track, up to the Goodwrench flag in the corner. The track lighting brings in a parallel line from the top. I'm not really sure what type of perspective you were going for here but I like it anyway. He-he.
Are you trying to say that the car has 850 horse power??? That's cool...maybe the people could have been blurred to show that theyre in slow motion, and then have the car regular so that it would look like it was going faster.
Great action shot. Even in night lighting, you got nice coloration. I'd work on the title - a bit too wordy. No need to explain the shot. Even "GO" would work for me, but that's my taste. Good luck!!
