Hi eveyone,

As the new season of BSB is about to start I thought I'd post a few of my shots from last years BSB race weekend at Knockhill, looking at these I remember how bloody hot it was. Hopefully 2007 will be the same.

Totally awesome shots Klippie. I've been on Knockhill but never got any wheels off the ground (as if...). Love the red bull on the brakes, that's puttin the brakes on! I've been to Sepang for the last twp motoGPs, I'd would love to get inside the fence to try my hand... Any tips?

NewattheGame, thanks for the kind words...:)


I've been to Sepang for the last twp motoGPs


How good would that be, is it as hot and humid as they say. The racing must have been fantastic though and to see it at one of the best race tracks in the world, I'am jealous as hell..!!!

The only tips I can give are practice taking as many shots as you can with different settings to see what works best for you, and keep plenty spare batteries and memory cards handy because guaranteed you'll be caught short just when you least expect it.

Excellent set of images. Numbers 3 and 4 do it for me. I assume you had accreditation as I haven't been able to get to some of those positions spectator-side of the fence. Very envious, I have already booked my hotel for this year's Knockhill round so maybe bump into you there!

Thanks for the praise lads,

I'am glad you like No4 it's one of my favorites too.


peeps27,

These shots were all taken from the public areas, I've never asked for a photographers pass at Knockhill as I've found a few nice spots to take my snaps from over the years.

If you look at shot 5 in the back ground where the marshals are just to their left is where I took shot 4 from.

I'll see you there in July, I think we're going to see a classic year for British Superbikes in 2007 I can't wait...
