From a club meet in Auckland on Sunday.

Using karts to practice my panning technique. (its also easier and quicker to get to the kart track).

Those are good panning shots. The second one is my favorite. Nice and close.
Was that at Mt Wellington? I'll be down there this weekend shooting the bike (buckets) racing.

Thanks ! my panning is getting better slowly

Excuse my ignorance - what is bucket racing ??. When is it on, I may come down. I live pretty close by.

Ha ha!
Bucket racing is basically racing buckets of bolts. It is motorcycling but limited by their size. You have the 50cc class, the 100cc watercooled class and the 125cc aircooled class. So long as they are those capacity and a couple of other regulations. You can do whatever you want to the bike.

A friend of mine has a 100cc two stroke pushing out 22HP. Doesn't sound much, but considering my NSR 250 puts out 50HP. His 100 is pretty grunty.

I'm planning to go there Sunday.
PM me and we could meet up.
