Racing Photography – The Need for Speed

Happy Monday!

I had a great time shooting the BMW / Mini Cooper Autocross event yesterday. The weather was perfect with highs in the upper 90 s, low humidity and a light breeze. Well, perfect for Houston in June anyway. Here are a few images from yesterdays shoot. That's my brother-in-laws super-charged Mini Cooper in the first shot.
