Thruxton pics from yesterday

Managed to sort my pics from yesterday. Not that great but here they are...

My only pic of the porsche as it went over the safety barriers

Rest of the pics HERE

That's 30 out of the 375 I took

Yeah, I had to reduce 1100 photos to about 35,lol.

That Porsche flipping over the barrier was mad, was surprised there was no-one standing behind the barrier (or did it "only" flip over the firs barrier behind which the marshals stand?).

Good photos.

I delete a lot on the day, plus shooting in RAW mode on my camara I can't get more than 400 on a 4GB card so have to be selective

There were two marshalls that had very near misses. One of them was in the back of an ambulance for the rest of the race. The car cleared the 10ft ( or however high that one is ) and narrowly missed the Marshalls, and bits of car almost took out the camera man on the corner.

It's lucky no-one was walking round there as it's a public footpath.

Impressive photos there, capturing some good racing, might have to make the trip down for the next Thruxton weekend

Thanks, first time out shooting motorsport with the new setup, hopefully the pics will only get better as I get the settings nearer to being right.

I'll definately be at the October round

Hi,

Just out of curiousity, did you get anymore of the clios smashing each other to bits at the start of their race? My brother was caught up in it, and no-one really knew what happened.. I was watching at the wrong part of the track obviously.

Cheers

I'll have a look, I don't think I've got any but when I get home I'll have a browse and check.
