Sorry for my ignorance, but what is the story behind the last pic? Are they taking a joy ride? I would be very scared.

Great work.

You've got some nice shots here Dicky based on the difficulties it sounds you had with crowds of people and fences. Bloody catch fences are a pain in the backside. I know they're there for a reason, but they really aren't necessary in all the places they're erected on any track. I think Brands Hatch and Snetterton have to be two of the most sensible tracks I've been to recently for the extent of catch fencing.

My favourite shot has to be James Toseland Pre Crash. I like his St Georges cross themed leathers. Very patriotic

Some nice captures there. The colours on the Repsol really do jump out at you.
