Might as well put my Cadwell Park Shots Up Too...

Oh well, Kenny and Simon have done their Cadwell Park threads. I suppose I should brave the waters as well...

Thanks for the great shots Glenn....gota love the old Jags

[ukactionsports]

Great Pics!!!

Pic 5: Does he know he's broken his rear suspension!? :eek:

[Skip Souza]

Great series Glenn. Love the old Jags but I keep getting drawn back to the Alfa.

[Wazza]

Fantastic low angles. Wish I could get as low on our local track. :(

[Croasdail]

Ahhh.... ohhhhhhh.... woooowwwww....

Beautiful shots of some beautiful cars. I need to get over there some more and take in some track action.

[Cadwell]

Thanks guys :)

Skip, yes the Alfa shot works quite well. Cars in nice primary colours and showing three different points on the racing line through the corners.

Wazza, Cadwell Park isn't bad for low angles but even so I spent much of the meeting on my knees to get the camera where I wanted it.

Full gallery of the event with some larger pictures is now up.

The Jag and the Imp shot is fantastic - looks like a cheeky boy trying to outpace a man! :)

If I had an E-type I'm not sure I be racing it! ;)

[Simon Harrison]

Great shots Glenn, particularly #2 and #4 with the multiple cars in frame. I'm kicking myself that I didn't drop the TC off my lens for a while to get shots like this. Still, I enjoyed myself going for the tight crops.

Hope the XK race was more interesting then their qualifying!

Cheers,

Simon.

[GSH]

Extremely pleasant :)

I really like the last 2 Jag XK shots. A classic car in every way. But shouldn't that S Type be followed by a MK1 3 litre Granada with Regan & Carter in it ? :lol:

Yeah, it's a fun shot and you get a lot of these seeming mismatches in classic races. The fact is though, that round the twisty bits a well sorted littl'un can give a big'un quite a scare.

You know I'm not sure I'd race an E-type either but I am glad these guys do so that I can see the cars being used as they were intended to be.

[Dave_G]

colours and DoF are awesome in #4

the XKs are just perfect if you ask me

[Brands]

Some lovely tin and excellent shots.

One day I will manage to visit that track:confused:

[KevB]

More cracking photo's. The more i see of pictures taken at this track the more i want to visit:D

[dengli]

Really nice angles Glenn. The two Jags are my pick of the bunch and of them the last one just steals it because of the clean background and just the hint of the curbing. Just gives the image that little extra dimension in terms of placing the car on the track.

[RichardtheSane]

Great shots!
Always been a fan of old jags and the XK 120 you posted last is beautiful - although I do like the S Type being chased down by the imps :D
