Thanks, it's a Nikon d3100 (as I'm a bit of a newbie to this photography lark, do enjoy it though!). Lens is a Tamron 70-300 Di VC

Do you have any details on the number 32 car? I am sure it used to belong to a dear friend of mine..?

Sorry I'm afraid not. Maybe the race results are available on line and you could at least see who the driver was?

Cracking pictures!

Thanks very much!
I've only had the camera a few months (my first SLR) but I'm getting happier with each visit to Oulton (it's pretty close to me so I've been a few times!)

Most of the quick ones are at Druids (a pretty quick corner) and they're around 1/100-1/125. I had a few decent ones at 1/80 but far more which were blurred!! I'm happy with how these have turned out though, but I'm going to have to practice more if I want to get consistent results at a lower shutter speed.
