I was shooting drag racing every weekend in 1967, working for Beeline Dragway. I think the reason there isn't much in that area is that not everyone can get trackside and photograph from that location. Anyone can take their camera and shoot from the stands, but that isn't as visually exciting as standing 20 feet from a dragster when it launches.

Yep, being 20 feet away from a car that will be going over 300 MPH in 1,320 feet as it takes off is a rush. Cars that exceed 100 mph in ONE second. Watching Porche 911RSRs or Ford GTs going by with twin turbos screaming at 7,000 rpm as they come out of a corner is like standing next to a small jet taking off. I'll be trackside at a few races in the next few months.
I learned by doing, the same as I learned to photograph most anything.

Pay more attention to file size versus pixels, etc. Keep each photo to 1-2 Megabytes (Mb) and you can attached 3-4-5 at a time. (The 64Ox480 rule went back to the days of dial up modems).
Size may depend on the carrier you use for email though most of the big names for email, those sizes are fine.

If you decide to go with Neewer, check ebay, the prices should be better than Amazon.

Use what works for you and don't worry whether someone else likes it or not.
I got Lightroom because I'm very familiar with Adobe products and had learned about and used Lightroom in college many years ago. Whatever does the job for you is good for you.

It was said a week or two ago that someday, we'll probably have chips embedded in our heads or glasses to take photos, make calls and more. Just ran across this. Not great, but...
"Snapchat has just introduced version 2 of its Spectacles camera glasses, and they come with a bunch of new features. The glasses—which Snapchat has dubbed "your hands-free camera"—can now take photos in addition to video, are water resistant to the point where you can even submerge them for short periods of time for underwater snaps, and will be available with prescription lenses, too."
