I have posted some stock shots, now for a few racing images.

A very big grid for the BARC Formula Renault championship made for good racing:

That's all, Oulton Park this weekend for the CSCC meeting, then Anglesey the week after.

cracking

number 5 shows massive diversity in the classes racing, a Sunny GTiR against a Mini against a Pug 205 against a BMW E30 against a (looks like) a Darrian and a Sierra and an Esprit and a Camaro.

perfect!

number 2 is my pick, I wish I could compose my shots like that Ken. I'm still looking at your stuff and learning

I think the phrase "eclectic mix" springs to mind. It was a a result of combining the Ace Deliveries (K&N as was), Hillside Sports/Saloons and the Waxoyl Classic Thunder. A grid of 33 cars, quite busy on track to say the least.

Oh, that is a Honda power Mini (road legal too). It was one of a pair.

V-Tec mini. Mad as toast! Saw the number plate and thought it might be road reg'd!

Superb shots again

Shots #2 and #3 are superb Ken, I like them a lot.

I've only ever seen Honda powered Minis (both bike and car powerplants) on the Autograss circuits. Very, very potent, but definately not road legal!

Cheers,

Simon.

Hi Andrew, here is Carol in the first heat coming into Druids:

This is the last time she passed through Knickerbrook in heat 3. She hit the tyrewall at Lakeside shortly after and that brought out the full rescue crews, including doctor:
