I took my buddy to see NHRA Drag Racing at Columbus, OHio and he is into photography. He snapped alot of pictures of dragsters on their way to 300+mph in the 1/4 mile and you can read the sponsorship decals on the car along with the drivers name when it was half-way down the track (probably in excess of 200mph at that point!) I was impressed!
