Here are some of mine.

This very neat flying camera platform would have made great target practice.




My absolute favourite car of all time, the Porsche 959 - the world's fastest car for a while until it was beaten by the Ferrari F40.









Plus a rally prepared 911.



Some very nice Ford RS models, there were plenty there and I really wish I had taken more pics of the Escort mk2's especially the RS1800 which was more or less opposite our stand.










Some nice pics of Kev's and Simon's cars, they really do both look like they just came off the production line they are that fresh.








Some random track action, I felt a little intimidated by Shaun and has long zoom lens.











Need I say more?



And some old Datsun that someone abandoned on the stand bringing the whole tone down.

Nice pic that, I noticed by the last session he'd hit the rear quarter and knocked the rear light unit out, you can't knock the man for trying that's for sure

Fantastic people shots.... Let them loose with cameras I hear you say

A few top shots there Shaun looking really good especially since the weather made things so difficult with the light conditions, many thanks for a few of the RA they will look spot on in the close of my build booklet

I just realised there's a few great ones from Ty as well.... Ty is getting his eye in as well these days

Cracking day and im officially in love with Si's RA.

And I promptly forgot it all, didn't you notice my eyes glaze over the more in depth you went? (only joking)

I did alter the shutter speed plus some other settings and somehow managed to take some half decent track shots, but I couldn't remember now which ones I altered.

Sod that, that's what zoom lenses are for - spying from afar, Shaun has loads.

This years rallyday was certainly a goodun. That forester was going bloody well, definately points for commitment ...... there was no way i was keeping him honest in a car i had to drive home in! :-)

Being on track at the same time as the dbrad and collins scrapping was an eye opener.

Nice Pic matey! If anyone has anything else id be keen to see them..... particularly if they were standing at camp early in our 2nd session.... had a bit of a moment.

Some nice snaps there Lee, especially that they were off the phone.

Those cupcakes were certainly the highlight of the day !!!

It's the wiring loom. They use mill grade connectors to allow for very quick change of sensors or complete engine change.
