Hi all,
I went to a drifting day at Oulton Park on Friday in my old battered skyline, GTS33.
There was a guy there taking pictures & meant to get his number but just presumed he was part of the company organising it & I would find the pictures on the web.
He must have been an independent but wondered if anyone knew who he was & if he got any pics of me? Not usually this vain but......
Must add that it is a truly fantastic day out & having never done anything like this before I would recommend to anyone. Had more fun in old skyline than in my 997!!!
Any help tracking down the photographer would be much appreciated.
PS.
Where any fellow PH'ers there?

Yes I did see you & it looked like you were getting the hang of it !
There were quite a few Elise's there and they looked good fun. The 360 tiptronic was struggling and the Boxster span nearly as much as me. Found it really interesting and will do another will you?

Yes I'd definitely have another go. Little clip attached before the camera battery died. Yes it's messy but it's funny how quickly you pick it up isn't it?

Scroll to the bottom.

I will be there with my camera for that as I am getting a lap or two in a S2K biggrin

Great video, it gives a great sense of what it was about.
I did see you with the tape out either attaching or adjusting the camera.
I believe there must be 2 companies organising the events then as it was a different company I went through MSV?. If you go to Oultonpark.co.uk (track days on LHS) you will see the next date 17th Sept & only £125.00 (BARGAIN) http://www.motorsportvision.co.uk/resources/sponso...
One of the instructors said they might hold them weekly as they were so popular.

Me and the missus where there in the orange 350Z, and realise i really need a bigger lense for the camera!

I was talking to the guy with the camera, he was there with the guys in then boxter and red m3

and i was hoping he had some decent pics of my Z getting all crossed up!


it was a good day and i'm hoping to go again!
