Spent the morning on the Military ranges for the Welsh Rally. There was a great field of cars which quickly dwindled off with retirements as the stages were run.

Like the shot of Terry Brown the best, lovely sense of speed and looks like he's taking off!

Thanks. I think some of the shutter speeds were a bit low for jump shots as there is definitely a bit of shake in that one.

Nice shots but cropped far too tightly, from #6 onwards they look much better

There's something about #8:)

Thanks for the feedback Ant, most are at 70mm, I had my backside up against a barbed wire fence at 'Deers' so only with minimal cropping.

I do like the rear shot of the Darrian :)

Thing I may have been stood pretty close to you at Deers ... I was the bloke complaining about the 'thick as sh*t' spectators lying down by the jump!

They are all great shots. I like the ones where you can actually see the car OFF the ground. Great shots.

I think the rear shot of the Darrian really shows it flying in anger,almost spitting .love it.
The last shot of the Scoobie is close to being really good ,just missing out on focus and panning a tad.A great angle.

Not to mention the 'big fella' standing with his phone, were you the guy that offered me a lift to next stage? If so thank you, unfortunately I had to call it a day :(

POO 504R is a well know car, ex works along with POO 505R which Roger Clark drove.

Didn't Russell Brooks also drive 504R?

I have pics of it RHD & LHD and in different schemes including Andrews when Brookes drove it. I dunno if chassis no's are the same though.
