If Im not mistaken they share the same bloodline, and the Ascari was originally called the Noble Ascari FGT... ?

Awesome picture Jenx, love the view of the unladen wheel in the wet too. Did you use the same camera/lens as Steve?

Did someone mention unladen wheel biggrin



For most of the time I used my 1DIIN and 100-400 while Steve used his 1DIII and 300 f2.8, sometimes with a X 1.4.

That Morgan driver looks like he's in trouble from the angle of that pic, probably isn't, but that barrier looks pretty ominous.

Martin / Steve,

Fabulous pictures as usual, really must try and get to some circuits on the continent as it would be nice to see some of these cars on some of the worlds most famous circuits. Really fancy Spa, perhaps next year.

Are you both at Rockingham this weekend ??

Regards

Tim

If any one is interested I've finished uploading the Monza shots (55) to my website, and there are also some from the British round (20) at Silverstone.

Martin, nice shots but there's something up with your home page, the shot of your car on my screen at least has scroll bars all around it, I'm on a fairly low res laptop mind you, but it does look pretty odd. The rest of the site is fine though

The problem with the scrollbars is that the front page is a frameset.

It's been a while since I've messed about with frames, but if you replace the code of your index page with the following:



<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" CONTENT="text/html; charset=iso-8859-15">
<META NAME="Generator" CONTENT="NetObjects Fusion 7 for Windows">
<TITLE>Home</TITLE>
<FRAMESET BORDER=0 FRAMESPACING=0 FRAMEBORDER=0 COLS="168,*,120">
<FRAME NAME="left" TITLE="left" SRC="./html/left_defaultmasterborder.html" SCROLLING=NO MARGINWIDTH="2" MARGINHEIGHT="1" FRAMEBORDER=NO BORDER="0" NORESIZE scrollbar="no">
<FRAME NAME="body" TITLE="body" SRC="./body_index.html" SCROLLING=AUTO MARGINWIDTH=2 MARGINHEIGHT=2 scrollbar="no">
<FRAME NAME="right" TITLE="right" SRC="./html/right_defaultmasterborder.html" SCROLLING=AUTO MARGINWIDTH="2" MARGINHEIGHT="1" FRAMEBORDER=NO BORDER="0" NORESIZE scrollbar="no">
</FRAMESET>
</HEAD>
</HTML>


It should get rid of the scrollbars on smaller screens. Can't guarantee it will look perfect through - better to re-write the page without a frameset.

Cheers Dobbo, but I'm a fik builder FFS...I don't understand your particular dialect of Outer Mongolian biggrin Someone knocked up the site very quickly for me, then proceeded to tell me how to upgrade it in a similar Alien language to the one you speak. I just smiled, nodded now and again, and even threw in the occational "yeah", all the time thinking "what the fook is he on about? I never going to touch this as long as I live" hehe
The peak of my technical ability with IT is typing : and D ...it never ceases to amaze me when I see that green grinning pratt in my post biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

It's all relative - there is nothing wrong with knowing what you are good at and admitting what you aren't. You should see the state of the shelves I put up in my living room. Websites - easy. Making real stuff - hard.

If you want me to sort it for you send me a mail, I'll be happy to put it right for you. I wont even ask you to fix my shelves in return!
