Devon Airfield Sprint - 25/02/07



U

Another great day at the Airfield, unbelievable turnout, loads of great cars and lots of fun as always. Took 800 pics with the new camera, loved every minute of it, uploaded around 100 of them at the usual place (link below)

As always if anyone wants further pics of their car just PM me, I've got loads more that are fairly sharp...although it will take a day or two as I'm jet lagged and bloody exhausted at the moment.

A thread will appear shortly in the other Media section of all the non-Clios in attendance.

A few samples....

Pleased you like them.

As I will get asked sooner or later...

Nikon D50 with Sigma 70-300mm lens (the cheapo one, £90, love it!) for most, Sigma 10-20mm for the distorted wide static shots.

1/320 for head-on and 3/4 shots (generally), up to 1/800 for freezing-the-dirt-kicking-up sort of shots.

Between 1/50 and 1/125 for side-on panning shots.

These two stand out for me, PaulJ with a whiff of opposite lock, and Saner with the freedom of the best part of 1km of runway to himself to play on.

There was a "Safety" camera/CCTV police van parked obviously almost right opposite the entrance for an hour or so, then it snuck off, and hid at one end of the approach road to the airfield...then he went and hid at the other end. Cameras with f*** off zoom lenses helped keep track of where he was.

I think they were waiting for the farmer to boot us off the land, but he was there with us first thing while we were setting up :rasp: .

I really wish I'd gone over there and invited them to join us.

Baldylocks did the same as everyone else...got caught out by the wet grass/moss dragged up...I did almost the exact same thing in the same place as him on one run, and only got out of it by millimteres.

Great day and great photo's, so as usual, big thanks to Alex and Chris.

The Police van is a little worrying. Maybe filming our activitys due to residents complaints?? Tho we are hardly noisy and well behaved on the entry roads.

Really enjoyed tussling for places with Mark and chuffed we were within 1sec of the Evo running semi-slicks (possibly not wise application). He had a second advantage on the launch alone! Fantastic car.

^^^ That was on the warm up lap I think, everybody did that straight off the first corner (apaprt from the Evo!), I only caught yours, Paul Js and Rob669s though.
