???

The Chaparral, Spanish for road runner, were a series of innovative race cars built by Jim Hall and Hap Sharp to challenge the "big guns" of the automotive racing world. During a time when major manufacturers, mostly European, were dominiating racing circuits around the world the Chaparral championed the underdog and captured the imaginations of Americans. Thier work revolutionized the racing world by introducing new technologies. They introduced the first moveable wing and thier work with aerodynamics, ground effects, and composite materials set the standard for racing during their time.

And finally the bikes!!!! Then my battery ran out on the camera :( forgot to pick up the spares :(

[Law]

Cool pics, looks like a great day out. :thumleft:

[chazzyb]

Smashing pics. Especially #7. Fantastic noise they make... If you're lucky enough to ever hear it. I did, last year (I think) at Sammy Miller's museum, when Sammy blasted it round and round his courtyard!

[chazzyb]

And finally the bikes!!!!

I'll add mine here rather than start a new thread.

Went to the FoS on Friday, was a bit disappointed this year to be honest, they sell so many tickets it's really hard to get near the track at a decent point. Managed to see the bikes this year though which I completely missed last year.

This is how Chris Pfeiffer arrived into view:

Then he did some of this:

And left like this!

As usual you can click them to see the detail and movement in the bigger versions.

[Samnooshka]

They are great :) looks like you got really close :) we were track side through most of the day but only took my average range lense when i should have taken one to get closer... also my height meant that most of my shots have the straw bales in view lol so some have focussed on those :(

[Alastair]

Thanks, have a 70-200mm lens at the mo' so could get a bit closer than you did. I also know where the closest place to the track is (just after the first corner) which helped.

[Samnooshka]

I was using the 24-100mm lense. I have one which can zoom in a bit more but struggling for storage space on the bike i chose to use the better quality lense instead :) I still think they came out ok :) (all 280 odd pictures, before taking out the crappy ones)

[pete m]

Did anyone see Scott Russell ???????????

[Samnooshka]

Yes he was there on his kwak but didn't see him in person though.
