Like the one of the orange single seater, the swooping arc of the armco makes a great backdrop. Think I'd crop a bit off the bottom of the frame though as there's a blurry fence post in the bottom left corner that isn't adding anything to the image. Probably do the same thing with the Mini too.

The Porsche and Peugeot shots really show how tight the course is and give a feeling of proximity to the cars. Good composition on kit car 59 but I think the one of kit car 40 is a bit soft due to a panning problem and is a bit over-saturated too.

I like the way you've done your gallery layout, works well.

Thanks for the comments, I found it quite difficult to get good photos at doune. YOu are pretty close to the track and the cars are on and past you very quickly. Its also quite dark and they dont likeyou firing a flash at them coming up the hill :P so a lot of my shots were underexposed

I binned so much photos.

The course is really tight, its supposed to be 12feet wide but some parts are obviously tighter. The single seaters glance the walls and armco on the bends (they say its the quickest way!!!) and this is at what looks like close to 100mph!!!
