Yet again the British weather struck one of my motor racing assignments. This is day one of the BTCC meeting at Oulton Park. It started wet, then sort of dryish, foggy and then rain. It was a real challenge to get anything decent in the poor light and the races at the end of the day were either red flagged or had a safety car, or both. Anyway, here are a few I threw together before heading off to bed.

Now, this is where the really bad weather started to play havoc with the racing and the photography. The following three shots are from the Porsche Cup race:

For those of you who have been there, or are going Sunday, the pictures in the program on page 46 advertising the VSCC meeting are mine.

Looking very nice I must say. Probably passed you a few times today, I was there too.

The weather was crap. I really wanted it to be either Really sunny or Really downpouring (like last year) Inbetween, just groggy is the worst weather for me.

Bags of atmosphere in the first 2 and last 3 Ken. Tough conditions. Hopefully better for you today.
