Knockhill and no rain - honest.

[KennyG]

Well, I was there Sunday but it did rain Saturday and from what I heard it was a monsoon. Judging by the state of the areas behind the Armco and mud over my boots I can believe it. There will be another post for my Saturday shoot at Oulton Park, in the meantime enjoy the results of my trip way north. I was there on assignment to cover the Legends racing, but you have to get everything, sometimes just for fun....


Ford Fiestas two wheeling at Duffus:

Not to be left out the Scottish Minis joined in later:

Max-5 racing. Boy can these guys drift corners:

And the reason I was there:

And this was a signal to me as Peter Morton had come from the back of the grid to win this race (they operate a reverse grid):

And finally, how about a 650bhp Ford Fiesta - this was lightning fast:

As an amusing anectdote - I was processing the images and those with a lot of sky in the background appeared to have big chunks of sensor dust. After a lot of cursing and clicking on the healing brush, I noticed the bits of dust had wings and they were in fact seagulls. :o

After a lot of cursing and clicking on the healing brush, I noticed the bits of dust had wings and they were in fact seagulls. That's better that trying to patch a speck of dust on the monitor! :D

Those Fiestas have more lift than anything I've ever seen (that stayed on it's wheels) ;)

Nice low shots, Ken. Those guys are intense.

[coatsie]

Nice shots as always Kenny - do so like the legends. :)

#1 is awesome...nice work

[Dave_G]

Superb.

Bet that Fiesta is bonkers...

[Cadwell]

Great shots, Ken. :D I must make my way back to Knockhill one day. Being of the northern persuasion it was the first circuit I ever visited, but I haven't been there for many, many years.

I do remember being up to my knees in mud, though, so some things haven't changed ;)

[Brands]

excellent shots:cool:

not seen Legends this year yet, they are always great value:)

[Simon Harrison]

That first shot at Duffas is synonomous (spelling?) with Knockhill. Great timing. I'm hoping the Max 5 series will be back at Croft later in the year. As you say, they can really drift their cars.

Cheers,

Simon.
