Yeah, I have a season pass for Disney California Adventure and Disneyland, I usually can spend a whole day there just taking pictures and enjoying the area without rushing for rides.
Here is one from Tarzan Tree House

Oh nice ... awesome to have a season pass.

And that Tarzan looks super cartoonish. Bravo to the carver and air-brusher of Tarzan here.

Also, more zoomed in, I wouldn't worry about the wide shots, not dynamic enough for automotive sports.

Speedracer ZX3, that's a lot of Horsepower. lol. Well, they are Subies. And they are very nice looking.

Thanks guys. What aperture would you probably suggest? I'm still trying to practice how to offset the aperture and shutter speed to get the best exposure. This was also my second time using my 55-200mm lens I got, still getting used to it lol. I'm hoping I can get a media pass next time so I can be closer to the action! Next drift event is on February 16th.

Depends on the lighting. If you stay on a specific shutter speed, you'll either need to open up the aperture to lighten up the photo or stop it down to make it darker.
