Absolutely, John,

I didn't mean to disparage anyone who takes such photos.  I'm
something of a motorsports fan, although I haven't been to a race in
years, and I've never been to a drag race, although I'd like to.

Burnout shots are great, as are any other motorsports on-track shots. 
I love them all, no matter what the sport.

I guess I was just speaking to my expectations, and how pleasantly
surprised to see that you presented something that I hadn't expected. 
Again, a wonderful, wonderful photo essay!

cheers,
frank
