If they're what you take as a beginner, I can't wait 'till you know what you're doing. :lol:

Yep total beginner lol , i did have the canon 30D which i just used to put on the sport setting and hope for the best , i have just got the caon 7D which has been a big jump for me and a big eye opener as i now need to do the setting's for myself.
Only had it now for a few weeks , think it's going to take me years to get my head round all the setting :shock: and how to use to to the best i can.

They look really good mate, Good exposure and some great captures.

In future try and use a slower shutter speed and pan with the subject it will take some practice (ok a lot of practice) but will allow the whhels to be blurred and will give a much greater feeling of speed and excitement

That's the way to go - but got to say for a first attempt these are really rather good. They just need a little more sense of movemment in them, very hard branch of motorsport to achieve that in though. I'd suggest getting yourself along to some local events and practice panning track bikes / cars first to get a feel for it. Compositionally though, they can't be faulted - well done
