Re: British Racing at its best...

Lens lust so soon?!

Nice shot, the car looks nice and crisp and its a clever take on the theme. The bales of hay in the foreground are a little off putting however IMO.

Lens lust? Too right

I agree re the bales, unfortunately I'm a Goodwood virgin but at least will have a better idea where to stand next year.

Re: British Racing at its best...

I like this one too, with the flag on the front reinforcing the theme

I was hoping to get to Goodwood too this year but it didn't work out Oh well, there's always 2008 !

Cheers,

Tim.

Re: British Racing at its best...

Nice shot! Unfortunately at goodwood there isn't really anywhere which the view isn't restricted by the hay, i've been going for the last 10 years or so and it's got progressively worse with health and safety, I did see a few people walking round with their own step ladders to get better shots. If you enjoyed the actual racing I'd recommend going to the actual national hill climb championship events, I went to one at Gurston recently and it was an excellent day. Its all about the racing, everyone is really friendly and you can get much closer to the cars when they race. Click here for the website
