Time to inflict some more rubbish on you all...

Officially it was a Ford event (see other thread) but there were plenty of other marques represented. Some had a Ford link, others most certainly didn't..

1. Cosworth-powered Sunbeam up at Tower.

2. I reckon an Impreza is about as non-Ford as it gets..

7. The perfect dedicated track-day toy...

8. I'm all out of non-Fords so here's a Focus ST in that limited edition Orange that didn't stay very limited when Ford realised it would sell like hot cakes..

It probably is Dave but it was a very brief appearance. I didn't see it on track again after the first couple of sessions on Saturday.

Our esteemed Moderator is not impressed with the choice of engine though ;)

I'm my own biggest critic and never happy with any of my stuff.
The Sunbeam was lovely though and regardless of it having the "wrong" engine the amount of work that has been put into the car is amazing...not something i'd have the patience for.

Thanks for the replies :)

The Evo at Barcroft is just lovelly Geoff.

You need to watch your horizons a little on the Tower shots. Not that I can really talk, as I have the same problem most of the time when I shoot there as well :o

Do you have anything from the centre triangle with the car more towards the apex of Complex 1? If you do, I wouldn't mind having a look at it. Apologies for being cheeky (again!!) :lol:

Cheers,

Simon.

.

Horizons are my big weak spot. I think i have one leg shorter than the other :D. I had the polariser in for the Evo shot. I did a bit of experimenting with it when the sun came out.

500 is just a bit short for single car shots at that apex, but if you have a decent pack of cars it would be just about right.
