I took some stock shots of some of the nice tin running at Oulton Park this weekend. I will do a proper race post when I get the time, but some of this stuff you just don't see that often.

A simply immaculate Camaro:

A much modified Ford Saphire 2000:

We had a couple of the Dutch Supercars, this one with 4000cc of pure power:

Another Camaro, with over 6000cc of Chevy engine:

Guess what, another one:

Wow, some beauties. Had a few Camaro's at the historics today as well, they sound like bliss. Great photos as usual.

I struggled with the lighting and all but the odd few were shot in manual. It was damp and misty for most of the morning out at Druids, then it suddenly became very warm and humid, which brought out every flying bug known to man. I must have looked like a mad man wafting my arms about beating off the little beasts.

Not that many incidents considering the biggest ever grid of Legends in the UK. One at Lakeside and this one at Knickerbrook two laps before the end of the very last race. They finished under yellow rather than stop it that late on.

That is a quality shot of the accident, it looks like he'd had enough of racing and decided to trash some tyres instead. :lol:

A lovely set Ken, that first Camaro is a fine looking car.

I really wanted to get down for this meeting, but i managed to put my back out at work on thursday so i was laid up for a few days, so it's great to see some shots from the day :)

It is an ex-DTM car. I have never seen anything carve its way through the field as quick and go on to win as that did. Certainly it was a case of car and driver of the day.
