Hi Everyone! I am in need of a really good motorsports website for a class project. I need to explain why my classmates would want to visit the site, the quality of the photos, etc. Something with action photos would be best. Any ideas?

The Trackbytes Gallery (http://www.trackbytes.com/gallery.php) is great. They mostly shoot ALMS/SWC, so that won't help if you're specifically looking for CCWS shots, but their work is fantastic.

If you want to convince your classmates why they should visit a motorsports site, you are probably better off finding a site that shows lots of crashes & mayhem.

Don't forget about the old SpeedCenter website. Lots of good ChampCar photos.

Wow, what a great site of photos from my early days as a race fan. Even some hard to find CART pics.

Ah, a man of taste. Of course, if you're going down that route, you have to throw in the Cahiers, as well. :cool:
