Being a car nut, taking photo's at a static show is OK but I love the action shots better (only one chance to get it right). Here we are at the Santa Pod Raceway in Bedfordshire England May 27-29, 2006 at the first round of the European Championship. The weather report for the weekend was good on Sunday and rain on the Bank Holiday Monday. So my friends Stuart, John and myself decided to go on the Sunday. Guess what? The weather was great on Monday too. All started out a little slow with the weather, meaning the track wasn't ready to open until around 12pm. This wasn't a problem as it gives you some time to look around the pits. There was a great field of cars/bikes in all classes. Helped by a huge contingency from Europe/Scandinavia. When the racing did start it was out of this world. By the time racing finished it was 9PM and cars had there headlamps on and I was ready to go home!!  Best wishes Scott.
