For someone inexperienced with photography, you certainly have an eye for composition. Very nice work.

The results are in!

Video is uploaded to youtube but it's taking a while to process, I'll post the link as soon as it's done!

It was a close one On all the other rounds there was a clear winner but this one required video analysis

this will have to become a monthly event but maybe have a blind draw to allocate the cars, otherwise it wouldn't be fair

I'll make a better track for next time and film all the heats. Only had access to an old digital camera to film it on so the kvality wasn't that great.
