Awesome picks :thumb:
Don't know how many noticed, but there was loads of E39 M5's and I think something like 3 or 4 E34 M5's. Was great seeing so many. Only saw one 540 6speed though :mmm:

Kobus, we picked the same pic as the best pic from the bunch. :joy:

Good job Phillip. I am so glad you followed my advice on copyrighting your pix. The pix are fabulous. You also took pix that show the atmosphere at the fanatics stand. Like Jeffs "dealings" and my X3s open boot with the fanatics flags in the background.

This has got to be the BEST ACTION photos taken from the DAY !!!! Im not even sure how you got the extreme close-ups of some of the drifting cars, but it looks amazing. This has nothing to do with the fact that you got me in 3 of your photos, but u even got me with my visor down at the end of the 2nd session. AWESOME !! :thumbs:

Really like this pic -

Nice work Mr F

 

[Philip Foglar]

Thanks guys!!

Actually didn't take as many pics of "our Fanatic's car" as I wanted to since they were all spread out compared to last year.

With the track and action shots still learning as I go along to prevent motion blur and framing is obviously very tricky - so I am crooking a little from the fact that a lot of these shots are cropping thanks to the high res. That one with the wheel for instance. :rollsmile:

[Gregmeister]

:bravo: Really needless to say some AWESOME pics, capturing the day's event brilliantly. Well Done Sir! Thanks too for getting some action pics of us on the track! :thumbs:

 

[Philip Foglar]

Many thanks Greg! Really enjoyed the day - awesome cars and of course awesome people! Your car is looking great and looked very at home on the track, must have been a blast for you of course! Most classic was when you had realised that the session was still ongoing, meaning, more chance to take to the track! :rollsmile:
