What a cracking weekend. Excellent racing, extreemely well run as always by A1GP and watched "Emo" give the Yardely McLaren some stick to make for a perfect time at Taupo.

I took way too many photos - I must tell my index finger to stop pushing the button :oops: I even had to order more disk space from the hosting company.

1. Toyota Racing Series provided some outstanding close wheel racing.

Excellent pictures. First one I really like the angle. You really wouldn't think from your pictures or even the TV3 coverage that it was 'only' Taupo. Great to see such a huge event come over here just such a shame JR couldn't quite do the business.

Cheers Gents - I even managed to sell a few. Problem is I got message from an agency I've never delt with saying "thanks for the images - used a couple - what tag line credit do I want on them". Very perplexing as it is in the IPTC data and there's also the question of the money !!

All will come clear I'm sure.

Sorry for the delay it has been a hectic few days ....

Kit - 20D - 24-105 - 70 -200 - 300 prime and a 100-400. Picasa for the quick tear sheet and Raw Shooter (RIP) for the finished image if HQ is required. Breeze for the IPTC and JPEG generation
