Great work! Motorsport is an area I'd love to get involve with. Did you need to throw away many shots and were you pre-focusing? Thanks

Steve,
Great stuff!! I'm glad the winter hiatus is coming to an end for MotoGP, F1 and WSBK!! I'm planning on going down to Malaysia for the MotoGP later this year and will definitely bring all my gear to get some good shots!

Thanks for the comments guys,
I took about 160 shots in total, i have kept 90. I was pre focusing, but as i also had to pan to time the shot, the pre focusing didn't leave much room for error due to the speed of the bikes and fairly short lens. Good fun though.
Look forward to some of your shots Wilson, it will be very humid and hot, i hope the weather gods are kind to you.
Here are a couple more shots..
Quite a few ended up looking like this....
Headless Riders  and bloody photog in the background
I am really happy with this one considering manual focus @ 1/200 with a very fast moving subject..
