Heading to the track? Photograph the details, too.

I always said our driver's meetings took too long.

A few from the IMSA Indy Race this year. Plenty of great action shots, but I keep going back to the garage photos. 

Ford guys weren't hiding in my shots, haha!!

A 24-105 on a crop body wouldn't "turn me on" as the widest zoom position is right in the meat of where you want to be for a normal view.  The 17-40, while maybe not my first pick, makes a lot of sense.  A 24-105 on full frame is really nice; the field of view is just great from the wide end onward.  On Canon APS-C, 24mm x 1.6 crop factor = 38mm full-frame equivalent.  As a hypothetical, something more like a 14mm to 40mm zoom, would be great on a Canon crop body when we consider field of view only.

I shoot with a 7Dmk2 APS-C crop body and I find that the 24-105 suits me very well.  Perhaps it's just personal preference, but I just don't often find a reason to use my 17-55 f/2.8 instead of the 24-105.

I love the garage shots, especially at the Rolex 24. Go on Thursday or Friday to get the best shots, there's a lot less people there so it's much easier to get unobstructed shots. It's really fascinating to see the hardware up close with the bodywork off! I've also found that you can get some interesting captures from the roof of the garages before the on-track action starts.
