Great photos. I bet it's nice to run your baby down that road at full speed.

Thanks for the kind words guys! The M5 is really a joy for long distance cross country drive, not to mention its ability to haul a lot of luggage while doing it.

Here's a shot of the car more than 3500 miles later in desperate need of a car wash.

very nice!
bauska is right. the salt flat actually looks quite intimidating, really wasn't ballsy enough to actually run the car on it.

But the road leading there was very deserted, flat, long and straight. Had some fun there though...

I've always heard about that racetrack and have to admit Im curious to visit one day. But I had to chime in and tell you how amazing your photography is, the very first picture was amazing as I thought I was looking at a magazine cover photograph before I scrolled down and realized that is your own photography. Amazing!
