Thanks Mark... glad you like it. This is actually one of the few surviving genuine Phase 3s that raced at Bathurst in 1971... being driven by the same driver: Murray Carter.

Looks like we were all queuing up outside waiting for the door to open on this one!
Really like ian_g's - I suspect it's one of a few taken but the various elements in the one you've chosen really make it engaging and absorbing - and definitely convey speed.
The timing on aiwa_yamaha's is spot on too; a really nice moment captured.
This is going to be a big 'un!

I see someone else was at this year's Festival of Speed!!! Really like your mono presentation of Nick Mason in the Auto Union, Weasley... gives a nice period feel to it. Just a shame he has to wear that modern helmet... but at least it is an open faced one!!! :-)

Top picture Kev. Mini Motos are so fun to ride. I bet they are even more fun to ride like that rider in the picture.

You're right there...
I gave up riding road bikes to race minimoto, thinking it would be cheaper...
How wrong was I!!!
Some of the kids ride like Rossi, Look out for a kid called Bradley Ray, he was on the 5th gear program last year, he's moved up to 70cc bikes now and is winning constantly...
Anyway, the guy in the pic is my mate Adam...

Yeah looks fun. I'll have a look out for him, but to be honest i don't track along with mini moto racing. I'm a top motocross fan (AMA in america). If you do know who Ryan Villopoto is, he is my favorite rider.
When i ever seem to go on mini motos lol i always get a cramp in my leg, not good.

Alan enters yet another stunner...
I was going to stick in my version of this, but on a side-by-side comparison, I'm going to dig out an alternative.. :-(
Guess we must have been standing in almost the same position....spooky !

Hi Andrew,

I was standing on the staircase at one end, set the camera down on the handrail and used the self-timer to fire the shot (no tripod!) - I remember I took three from each end to cover myself before jumping on my train . . . . I was staying with friends in Hastings-on-Hudson, once the home of Lewis Hine.
Looks as though you had better light when you were there 
Here's another version
they were taken in May 2000.

I can't believe there's a racehorse called Beaver Patrol.

The race course is Epsom Downs and Beaver Patrol supposes to be a three-year-old colt.
