Aaron,

Maybe a cool photo but the car isn't exactly sharp... personally I would delete it :/.

Why do you guys use flash? To compensate with the sun?
I never use it for cars, same as Jimmy.

Ive seen pictures of people taking pictures and i seen speedlights on there camera. I was wondering the same thing. Maybe for some fill, if its harsh out?

I've never tried it during the day, but i did try it at the one night event i went to.

A speedlights flash duration is super short (at lower settings). So it could help to "Freeze" the subject. idk..

Cooper - FYI I didn't want it frozen. I wanted it to show what the car went through when it impacted. Shows the shock of the impact going through the car.... I could have froze it but then it just looks like a car suspended in air.... Here are a few more I took. Different tracks.. Trying to get a cool shot with the light in one and just a standard shot in the other.

I only use the flash when there is hardly any light. No need to use it during the day.

That first shot, was with the strobe right?

When you do use a off camera strobe, where do you put it. I put mine about 2-3 feet to my side and just hated the outcome.
