Here's some of my favourite piccies and a link to others I took:

Nutter!!!

The Pit Lane on Friday is open:

File Attachment:


Anyone for an Aston Martin Works engine?

File Attachment:


The Legends Race Saturday morning:

File Attachment:


The Aston Martin Cup before the main race:

File Attachment:


Porsche Won but not this particular car:

File Attachment:


This broke Audi's years of domination:

File Attachment:


Toyota tried but could not keep pace with Audi and Porsche:

File Attachment:


The sound of the GTe Pro Corvettes was intoxicating V8 goodness:

File Attachment:


But the Dodge Viper made some great noises too:

File Attachment:


File Attachment:


This year the Works GTe Pro Aston Martins sounded awesome with their British V8's too:

I'm getting a bit of a fetish for 911's at the moment:

This is Patrick Dempsey:

File Attachment:


Some shots of the Dunlop Bridge before it got too dark for photos:

I loved the airbrushing on the LMP2 car:

File Attachment:


Even professional race teams have to make do with a lightweight jack and axle stands!

File Attachment:


Some of the Aston Martins had air jacks though which I would love to have on my car! Just press a button and up it goes for you to put the axle stands under, then let the air out for it to lower onto them. Then again a two post ramp would be nicer! I don't think the neighbours would like that on the drive mind!

The rest can be seen from this link anyway:

You can only see so much at the circuit, even with the big screens, so I might buy the Duke Video DVD this year.

Image #6 was my favourite, good saturation & depth of field. Nicely framed.
