Very nice - especially from the banks. Well done Mark.

A quick crop and a bit more light.... Mmmmmm... even nicer!

The moment Steve Greens Cortina breaks on Sunday.....

If you look under the rear axle.....

The car ground to a halt at half track milliseconds later.

It never ceases to amaze me, the quality of pictures you guys get from the spectator areas. Excellent work folks.

There are those who would sell or have sold their grandmothers to get media access, and/or who write us and others begging letters for help to get trackside (BTW we have no sway), but what I would say is just look at the above shots - going trackside is not the be-all and end-all. Some of us who get there have probably forgotten that too so it's nice to see the superb work above and be reminded.

Steve's car was ok, just dumping the nitrous out the back.

it looks like its alight..which is odd cause nitrous oxide dosnt burn on its own as its just an oxident not a fuel,

Ah my knowledge of Nitrous is limited. Maybe its fuel then. I presume it's something like that as thats where Steve's pipes end. Maybe the reason for his car sounding so unique...

I thought I got a couple of pics of this & spent ages trawling Sundays' pickings until I realised it happened on Saturday at half five...

I was in the wrong lane, but here's 3 pics of Steve exiting from proceedings on Saturday:-

1. Steve's launch wheelie is calming down as he passes the tree...


2. Touchdown! Note the small puff of rubber on the front wheel...


3. Boom! Something goes bang in the rear end and Steve's head goes for the dashboard... Crap shot I know..
