Thanks for posting. I was a drag racer at Atco Dragway in New Jersey many moons ago.
Colors are outstanding in these photos.

Check out that tire rippling in the last one, lots of torque.

I know for me, I'll be going again. That was my first time and the feeling of getting punched in the chest then those cars take off is awesome.

Ya, that one was kind of surprising, I took quite a few panning ones and it was a lot harder than it would seem.

8000 Horses to the back wheels.. I've got a close up shot of one like that, but I need a good noise removal program first...

Great shots prohobo. I used to go to the local Mission Raceway quite regularly, even had a Ford Mustang that I ran down the strip occasionally.

Nice stuff, thanks for sharing. I shot Maple Grove a few summers ago but have only been to roundy-rounds since. Nice to see some racing threads once in a while.
