Arrived late (start of final run), so only had time to take a couple of photos on Sunday afternoon, and most of them didn't come out too good frown

Also missed quite a few cars whilst chatting to a friend waiting for the track crossing to open.

Here's a couple until I can sort through some others later in the week:



Spin sequence (I need a faster camera!!):





Stiglet


Kiltie


Somewhat blurry and out of focus, but impressively sideways for one of the racing cars eek


The others are here, and will be added to later in the week.

Uploaded a few more now and found another (not quite so) sideways racing car. Not got my list of entrants handy so don't know who it is or what they are driving.

Nice to meet you John - and thanks for the CD!! Hopefully the Z3 (green!) at the ADMC Alford in October will be not quite as camera shy as the Broomstick Proper!!
Likewise smile I'll make sure I get lots of the Z3 at Alford in the hope at least one turns out OK!

If you have any good pics of the course car, I would not mind a copy - it always helps to keep sponsors happy.
Just the one of the course car:

Can email you a hi-res copy if you want, or could burn onto a CD with web sized images of the other photos.

[edit] found two more:

Found two more of the Course Car. I've uploaded the full size ones, so click on the All Sizes button, and select large or original:

The "original" sized ones would print fine on A4, or even A3.

Thanks John these are great. Have credited you with taking the photos. May we use one of them on our website and our club magazine?

JD
Absolutely no problems, please feel free to use any of them for websites etc. If you are going to print any, then let me know which ones and I can send you higher quality versions, as the ones uploaded are reduced in size/quality to make them quicker to upload/view on the web.

Cheers

John

As 'offical' club photographer for both GAC and ADMC now, make sure John gets to sign on as Media and get into some more 'priveledged' positions at Fintray and Alford, the results can only get better then !!!!!

OK, I've uploaded the rest of the photos now, but as I said at the start, some of them aren't very good, but I should have at least one of every car that ran during the very last timed session on the Sunday.

I've also discovered the slideshow feature of the flickr website:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnsidc/sets/7215760...

Move your mouse to the bottom left hand corner, a toolbar will appear, click on fast and it will then take you through in order of photos taken with a new image every few seconds (depending on your braodband speed). If you click on an image, it will display any description such as driver, car etc if I've had time to type them in. Clicking on any image again will switch off the info panel.

Hi John,

some great photos, Before I started competing I used to take loads of Pics, mainly of Rumster and Fintray and would have been very pleased to get some of these results.

I note some errors on the descriptions, if you look at Kiltie's post elsewhere you can correct the entry list. My vested interest is that the Red Radical (86) was driven by me; Angus Buchan (the current Highland Speed Champion cool ) and not Sinky as in your description.....
Thanks and well spotted with the errors. I've corrected your photos now biggrin (simple copy & paste then foget to change the driver mistake!). If anyone else spots any mistakes, just drop me an email/PM and I'll sort when I'm back home on Friday, when I'm hoping to finish typing in all the descriptions smile

Cheers

John
