160Kmph brake lockup
I am back shooting road bike track days apparently the photog that
took over from me when I left wasn't much chop, can't say I'd
disagree, Tried a shot from behind as he locked the rear up at some
serious speed.

I think this would be more exciting if you cropped tight to the rider- this would emphasise the smoke too. As it stands, the expanse of uninteresting background makes the image static

We do take good pic mate! Pity we can't chase up those Eastern Creek track days now you're back up the Goldy. At least you've got 'A' grade waves now.

Beautiful photo but as a rider can I guess the following: If the rear was locked the tyre would be in focus (as is the rest of the bike) and being the exit of the corner (judging from the end of the black lines) my guess is he is spinning up the rear. My guess only and you were there so...
