Club race pic's

[DanDC5]

Chevron's stunt bike pics reminded me of this one I got a while ago, quality isn't as good as it could be, I hadn't had the camera long so was still playing about with it. Pleased with the actual pic though.

Awesome shots Chevron

Some of mine from Snetterton on Sunday's (10/06/12) HSCC meeting. Not too much variety, the racing was too good to want to wander far

So much sideways at Snett!

Dan - good news re CPoP. I'm on Race Tech duties on Saturday so we'll meet for a paella and a natter.

Awesome shots there thankyou. I love going to HSCC meets and your pics for me sum up why I love historic touring cars: the variety, the close racing, the sliding and in person the noise aswell. Thanks

Cheers mate. I really, really enjoyed the day and it reminded me why I'd rather buy a season ticket to watch a years worth of club racing than a single day pass to watch five races at the British GP! We also said that it was one of those rare days when you wish the dinner break was longer, as there was so much to look at in the paddock. Normally I end up kicking my heels waiting for the racing to begin again!

And yep, there was lots of sideways action! The first lap of the second touring car race, the yellow Cortina held an absolutely perfect 30 degree drift all the way around Corrum - whilst in the lead! Really was a special sight

A few from TA at Knockhill.

Dan - sorry for not getting back to you. Suffered a bereavement this end so not been very focussed.

I'll be there tomorrow and doing an interview with Jann Mardenborough for Race Tech Magazine in the afternoon. Really looking forward to it. Catch you then!

Yeah I feel exactly the same, usually I have to sacrifice watching a race or two just to get around the paddock and see some of the cars up close! And that yellow Cortina (number 46) is driven by a guy called Dan Cox, he drifts that thing everywhere and yet still manages to either win or at least be on the podium of some of the quick V8s are ahead of him, amazing car control..

Slightly random, but cool fact. The 6R4 in TA is now running a twin turbo conversion so effectively now XJ220 spec I love Time Attack.

And to my real motorsport love, old motorbikes

The VMCC meeting from Saturday at Snett. Sadly I could only get there for an hour or two on Saturday morning as I was away to another old bike run.

Great shots of old motorcycles. I found a museum recording the history of the Catalan motorcycle industry in Barcelona, I'll get some pics up soon.

I'd be interested to see those

I'll get on it!

OK, a bit off topic but I like to think of myself as more of a motor sporting writer than photographer. Truth is I'm not great at either. However, I had the chance to interview Jann Mardenborough last weekend at Cholmondeley. May/may not be of interest to you guys.
