[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is a shot of Tom a friend from work racing in the 125cc gearbox carts at Dunkerswell, after an accident in the final he finished in 9th place but was awarded 8th after a driver was disqualified, this is a 125cc cart and has a 6 speed gearbox, it can do 0-60mph in under 3 seconds and will reach speeds in excess of 100mph.

Thanks to all who view and comment on my pictures.

Hi Andy great minds think slightly alike tonite...
these little carts don't half shift so this is not a bad shot I might have cropped a bit closer but the effect is good never the less....well done

Andy,
a cracking shot, VG feel of speed!
Good sharpness and DOF, excellent!

WHOA ANDY!

You "nailed" it! Great shot of him just entering the frame. I like how you have included the entire white curve of the track on the right. I don't know if this is the same thing as a go-cart, but it looks like something my sons would like to give a shot.

Great snap Andy... You had a terrific vantage point for photos! Well done...
