Good action shots, just enough blur on the wheels to show motion.
C&C welcome.

How often do they have events at Curborough? Love the Pugs. I had a 205GTI when I was young and handsome

Hi,

I think it's due to my attempt to 'clean' them up, I was shooting through the dust due to a very dry track.

Hi,

The next event at Curborough is the MG Car Club sprint on Sunday 7th April.

Hopefully I'll be going, if you are too then let me know.

There's a full list of upcoming events on the Curborough website.

Regards,

Chris.

I saw that on their website. I'd love to go. I am a novice and am trying to get to grips with my camera. If you can put up with me let me know

I'll be there from around 10.00am, just look out for someone with a large camera bag and a Pentax slung round his neck.

Regards,

Chris.

Interesting that the stock cars in Stoke all have sun loungers welded to the roof
