There’s a rhythm to a day at the racetrack that goes beyond the cars themselves. It starts in the quiet of the morning, builds with the rising sound of engines, and, eventually, settles into a blur of motion and power, displayed in fleeting moments. And what better way to experience it all than through the lens of Simon White, one of our favorite CC Cohort contributors? In his images, a day at the track feels like something more—a series of scenes where atmosphere, speed, and the spaces in between create something almost poetic.

Great shots against the dramatic sky. Shooting from a low vantage really adds to the magnificence of these creatures
Great shots! The Barracuda is one is my favourite.
