brickkicker should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I have been taking photos at racing for a year or so now, when I started I had a EOS 5 which I still use and cant fault it, I now work on an EOS D30 which is great. When you are considering spending money think LENSES these are the most important part. I love to use the canon 70-200 F2.8L i know these are not cheap but the quality is the best you will find (they do it in a F4 version which is half the price) I have found sigma lenses to be a bit slow and the standard canon lenses seem to hunt when in auto focus mode.
I will say this again get good lenses first dont buy rubbish you will regret it in the long run because they will be a bit disapointing, I started with a 75-300 canon F4-5.6 and in the end saved up a bit a got better lenses.
Canon IS is great but the sometimes take a bit longer to focus as they are stabilising.
happy snapping
