 This is the Ginetta Juniors support race at Brands Hatch.

Taken @ 400mm. The sun was really bright and the cars were a fair way away and the air was quite hazy so the focus was a little off. I wasn't going to bother entering it but decided what the heck!! I expect low 5's!

Convert from RAW with a 0.5 increase in exposure, a little extra contrast, levels, curves, noise ninja, resize, usm, sfw

Good action shot, might even be better if the shot was tightened down a bit to concentrate on the cars where the action is.

Very nice shot for the theme. I guess you should have made the title a bit funny...or even without the use of title it is a fit on theme.
