It's All About the Flames

Photo by Matthew Lowell Thompson

There are all types of cars to be photographed at a Rolex Series race. Daytona Prototypes, GT cars, Porsches, BMWs, Camaros. But the cars that really seem to fascinate the photographers I know are the Mazdas. And there's one reason for that -- the flames!

Matt took this week's photo at Lime Rock Park at the Rolex Series GT race in 2008. The #70 Mazda, driven by Sylvain Tremblay and Nick Ham, came in second that day. I think the flames definitely helped!
