...... Lola T70 leaves the pits after a quick stop.

Pete -

Excellent framing, timing, color and focus -- Since we see people on either side of the Lola in focus, the car is clearly in motion, which you no doubt wished to convey.

Pete,

A perfect moment expertly captured.

Azzo,
It's a gift

Actually, Stuart and Azz, these shots I find much harder to pull off than the cooking "fast cars going through a curve/down the straight", which pay my wages on race days. These amateur crew pit stops are pretty frenetic, it's difficult to predict what will happen.
What I can tell you is that Lola T70's can get away from a standing start quicker than current F1's and with even more noise

. Not bad for a forty year old design.
