View Full Version : Preview Photo's
Guys,
Andy (trackdayphotographer) sent me these two pictures last night. He was there all day until he'd filled his 12Gb's ! of memory cards and missed the last few sessions.
I'm sure he'll be posting soon regarding his photo's :D

Not at the moment mate.
He took a lot of photo's and I asked him on MSN last night to send me a couple.
I'm sure once he's sorted it all out (and been to work today!) he'll stick a post up :)
Nice pics , hope he managed to get me in one
His pics really are top notch.

Tell you what mate - didn't get my knee down all day.
I don't hang a long way off the bike. Most people only do for the purpose of getting their knee down anyway.
Think I went fairly quick anyway - and at times road aroudn the outside of people with their knees down and actually leaning further than they were ;)
Was certainly happen with my pace :)
KD is pointless unless you are at a good pace, I didnt touch much knee when I thought I'd go through a pair of sliders easy, I use it as an important guage on the track now, which I've never needed on the road - seeing how much talent I've got left before I'm off the edge of the tyre instead of hanging off like a monkey and getting some brownie points with the melted sliders fraternity :)

I started off trying to get my knee down but after 1 session of getting right and left down I stopped and they only touched down after that when i wasnt trying too, I actually picked me knee up on the long right hander didnt facy my knee hitting anything at 100mph banked right over lol, also the bloody cones onto the pit straight I smacked my knee into them so many times grrr :/
Thought it was you I was battling with for a session or 2, good show mate! My 600 just didnt quite have the legs on the straights though :(

I hang off like a monkey but still use the kneedown to guage how far over the bike is. Monkeys are for life, not just for Christmas.

Hi everyone!!
I'm pleased to say this lot are MUCH better than Donny's. :thumbsup: I'm throwing away ones that don't make the grade, cos the good ones just show them up!! :shock:
At the moment, I'm sorting through the good and bad ones, which is taking longer than I want because my damn PC's so slow. Running ccleaner overnight to try and cure that. Hope to have some tasters up tomorrow night.
Good things come to those who wait, my padawan learner ;) :lol:
Seriously, it's the first thing I do when I get in from work, and I'm on it til 0030. *just read that.. how sad does that sound!!! :lol:*
Don't worry, I'm working hard! :D

No, unfortunately not! I could only get to the hairpin, the top of the straight, and the chicane at the bottom.
Crap circuit for speccy photography IMO. Did my best though and I hope the limited opportunities do not come across in the photos.
