I actually started to photo and video my kid but did not get into doing the racing photos until my son-in-law's brother brought me to some of his races. I now just do it for fun and practice. The outdoor races are pretty easy to set your camera up to point and shoot. The indoor races are a great challenge due to the lighting and trying to catch them clearly when they fly around that track. I have my hobbytown setting pretty well locked in but the other races the lighting is much, much darker and the cars are twice as fast.
