Saturday afternoon in the south (USA)...Dirt Track Racing!

This is on my way to and from work (had to go to the office today - got behind this week!). I always wanted to photograph a race (I had a patient once who actually had a car and raced here, but I never got to come while he was racing.) I've got a couple more shots to share later...

Is it ATV's or motorcycles racing?

[Jeff]

love the point of view you used

[Susan C Clow]

Very nice shot through the chain link fence. Looks like a busy event it going on for sure.

Love the pov, love the colour contrasts, looks a very arid environment :)

[Nicole]

@constanlysmiling001 Thanks eileen p! It is "car racing" on dirt tracks (something popular in this area!)

@jeff__ Thank you Jeff! They wouldn't let me in the gate without paying!

[GaryW]

@vegansusan Thanks Susan. They are getting ready for the race "under the lights"!

@nicoleterheide Thank you Nicole! And thanks for stopping by. Please come back and view again! (By the way, how did you find this photo??)

[GaryW]

@hermann Thank you Sally! It is arid! They have tank trucks that go around the track with water to keep the dust down!

[Erica G.]

Great shot through the chain link fence.

@yeri87 Thank you Erica G! Good to hear from you!

I reallyl like the fact that you put the fence into this. It's hard to say whether it's keeping people out or keeping craziness in.

@francoise Again, perhaps a little of both. While I was there everything was calm. :-)
