Just some pics taken on saturday whilst watching the cars go round.









The trouble with taking pics at Snetterton all the cars hug the pit wall all the way up the straight

Most of the shots I took can be viewed here: www.photobox.co.uk/album/5098458

My favorite shot of the day was this one - I was really pleased with the shot on full zoom

It had a bike engine in the rear something like a R1 yamaha
but i could be corrected. It gave the 996Rs's a run for there money

I thought it was a Bike Engine of Some sort, it certainly sounded like one anyway!

I was led to believe Hyabusa 1300 with a blower if the marshalls were as well informed as they thought they were

Mini's maybe Z-car, built by Chris Allanson who's been turning out top-notch bike-engined Autograss specials for years.

See his website www.zcars.org.uk, awesome stuff.

Busa engine 180bhp N/A

mini weighs less than a fag box

Some however are pretty shoddy but I just keep playing and snapping gotta get a few right

I would post some of mine but they are pretty poor, from my 6 year old Kodak 3.2mega pixel....I really need a better camera...

Are you up there this Saturday?

I've just booked myself onto Saturdays Trackday so I'm sure once I tell my better half I will be in trouble, we're in need of a new bathroom also.
