An away trip yesterday to (a bit too) sunny Eastbourne... and a mixed bag of images:

Off to a flying start...

Don't do a lot of panning, but here's some anyway...

It was certainly bright at the start of the meeting...

And there was some good racing as the evening wore on...

Cheers cmM. I hope you can find something to shoot - my local papers often list plenty of motorsport events most weekends - MotoX, Grasstrack, Trials etc...

Cheers busterboy! It was a slightly different angle for me and it worked out OK I guess!

gmen, you're p!$$ing me off. I used to have the same opinion of speedway that I had of NASCAR and IRL, i.e. "Wack it open and turn left."
Now I eagerly await your speedway action photos. You have given it a whole other perspective not available through ESPN.
Great work.

*lol* Thanks Skip... I'll certainly keep 'em comin'... these guys certainly do 'whack it open and turn left'... but they ride for their lives for four laps (of 300 yards approx each lap) and get involved in some serious racing!
