I'm a huge fan of club racing, and always have my camera with me when I'm spectating. I'm no photographer (I'll get the excuses in early hehe), but it's fun to have a go!

There's always loads of people with digi-cameras on the banks now, so I thought I'd start a thread for folk to drop any random club meeting pic's they may have in.

Never know, people may spot themselves smile

ETA; the track should only be going one way in each pic - dodgy spacing on post by me makes it look like there may be some head-ons hehe

Some good pictures in there, but none of the Mini's that provided some very close racing frown

I was there all weekend too and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I was annoyed at missing the Minis! I got delayed on Saturday and missed the first race and couldn't make Sunday.

Did the Minis have a good sized grid? I've noticed grid numbers for most meetings seem to be quite small so far this year. Hopefully they'll get better as the year progresses smile

One my Son took at Cadwell last year of the car I help out with



As MSV have raised the kerbing this year (entry to Hall bends) I hope the driver won't be doing the same thing in a couple of weeks time!

Guy's I am new to this forum but was directed here by one of the other photographers.

I am a season pass holder at Brands Hatch and so I combine my love of motor sport and the amateur photographer in me.

Because I am at most of the Brands meetings I have many shots from the club meets in particular and so if anybody wants shots of their car please let me know and I would be happy to trawl through and I will supply any to Pistonheads members to get my name about as it were.

I will post up some samples and links to my Photobucket albums later but these will be a mere sample of the shots I hold.

Welcome along mate smile

That's the reason I started this thread actually, me and a mate have bought season passes for Snett and Cadwell (bargain bundle!).

My thinking was that I'd stick up a random selection from meetings I'm at, and if anyone wants a specific pic of a certain car then I can look through the others and see if I have one without a thumb half covering the lens hehe

I'll try and post in here which meetings I'm going to as well, so if anyone's racing I'll try and pap you smile

I'm afraid I've binned my programme, but I think it was the Dunlop Production Touring Car Championship http://www.barc.net/index.php?option=com_content&a...

The fella a few posts up was in the race, so he'd be worth a mail for details smile

Ok first up the requests for Nurburgsinghs motor.

Mate let me know which ones you want and an email and I will send them over in hi-res.

Only thing I ask is if you use them you credit "TCF Racing" ok.

those who just take motorsport photography as s hobby should check out some of the places that hire out lenses. you can get some pretty awesome lenses for less than £100 per weekend, ok, its a fair chunk of money but the results are brilliant.
