Great colours and oh so sharp!!  :happy2:

What body and lenses did you use on the day?

Were you on the spectator walkway near Knickerbrook for the Race 2 shots?  (if yes, I'd have walked right past you!!)

Robin... thank you. One day i might make a quid out of it, but for the time being doing it for pleasure is working for me.  :smiley:

Pablo, i use a Canon 5D mkII and a 100-400mm lens. Not the fastest camera for motorsports but the resolution is outstanding. Yes i was a Knickerborrk for race 2 and 3. Me and my brother managed to rig up an umbrella to a concrete post so we both had our hands free but could stay dry  :signLOL:

Looking at the photos it amazes me how much rear camber the cars seem to use, and how loud yet slow the Audi is.  :scared:

Fanatstic pics as always Rich!!  :congrats: Only managed to watch the first BTCC race and couple of support races on the telly  :sad1:

Was down at AMD today getting some bits and bobs done to my car when i looked out the window and saw this come rolling in  :party:



Was chatting to one of the guys there as i way paying the bill and found out about TOC leaving the team for Ford, apparently had too good an offer to refuse. I asked if Shaun was going to race again but i think they are looking at other options.

Unfortunately didn't see the car being unloaded from the trailer but i've been there a few times before when it was being stripped and rebuilt  :notworthy:
