Fintray Hillclimb Marshalls

[luggit]

Folks,

Grampian Automobile Club are running 2 rounds of the Scottish Hillclimb Championship this coming Saturday & Sunday (14th/15th). We always need marshalls to help with the running of the event, so any one interested in getting closer to the action can come along to Fintray for 08:30 on one or both of these days. Just make yourselves known at the secretaries caravan and you will be assigned to the chief marshall who will look after you. For your efforts you will recieve £10 and a free lunch.

You know I'll be along.
I'll try to get a friend along also to help, if I can.

And i'll add to that, not only do you get paid to watch motorsport, you're also much closer to the action!
And free lunch is a great incentive, burger, chips and a can of juice, can't go wrong with that!

Chris, were you the guy taking photos beside John? and also me?

[chrisj_abz]

was you the young lad that was on the crossing control station?

if so i was in the first bunch of guys sitting on the banking, there was a guy with a knockhill media hi vis vest on and another photographer with a baseball cap on between us and you.

[JohnS]

I was the one with the Knockhill media vest

I've uploaded some of my photos here: http://flatoutphotography.com/gallery3/index.php/F...

The last in the sequence of Keiths car going off. Great effort to get it back on track for the next session






Nicely held slide out of the hairpin


Eric drifting around the hairpin, he kept on the power and kept it on the track (note the black rubber marks off the spinning rear wheels)


Lovat almost caught this slide:


The weeds at the edge of the track got in the way for a few shots


Lee on the way to a time just 2/100ths from the outright track record.

That picture doesn't show up. But yeah, you took a picture of me, it's on your facebook.

[JohnS]

I've just changed website hosts, so the changes might take a day or so to come through. Works OK for me here.
