Default VW Cup, Brands Hatch 12th June

Some shots from the Qual session at Brands today. 40D + Sig 70-200EX and/or Sig 120-300EX. Shot mostly at the bottom of Paddock Hill and around Druids, which is why they look kinda similar!

Might as well start with a pan. Yes, that is a Diesel


Herbie Goes Racing


Same Golf as up there ^ at the bottom of Paddock Hill


Another van - also a DERV!


Tasty R32


MkII Golf


Herbie again


May as well end on another pan of another Diesel Caddy


Think I might have overdone the sharpening when I batched these ones. Damn Sigma lenses, way too good...

If you are a fan of VW racing you HAVE to check out the Red Devil built by Carpi in 2004-2005. It's a Golf 3 that DOMINATES the track on Street legal days.

There are a few other vids arround.

You're losing your touch mate. These are rubbish.Look how soft those pans are.



Top notch. See you tomorrow for some banter.

great shots, makes me think not getting a sigma 70-200 2.8 is a bad idea.

I'm loving the first and last pics in this set, the big cloud of black smoke out of the golf is brilliant!

The caddy pan is super sharp as well
