Rainbow over Wakefield Park

Historic Drifting at Wakefield Park :twisted:

Porsche goodness!

Trent, nice pics. Seems everywhere you go just now someone is paying their respects to the King.

You should offer the use of the 'Rainbow' image to the track owners, it's a cracker! Nice panning on the Porsches, were you using a TC?

Thanks Alan! No TC on these ones, D200 and Sigma 30 f/1.4 for the first one, Sigma 12-24 for the second, and 70-200 VR for the last two.

Trent, nice stuff. Not easy to drift a 1973 Carrera. I aslo like the rainbow image

Funny just noticed that there is one Fuch, one not, at first my brain just registered motion blur without thinking.

PS Wakefield Park is for sale if you want to buy somewhere nice to take photos :lol:

Trent, just noticed that you have a water droplet on your lens in the 'rainbow' shot. Bottom right corner.

Thanks for that Alan, will have to fire up PS to fix it when I get home. Damn protruding front element and rain! :twisted:

Haha, I don't have the spare coin though! :lol:

IIRC the owners are going in with Tony Perich to build the "Oran Park Replacement" South of Campbelltown.

So it seems.

Well caught Trent. 5 fps is well used by you

I had a 3 litre Carrera like the red one you have photographed, once the arse starting moving for real I guess I caught it one out of five times :lol:

Probably more a reflection on my lack of talent than anything else. The electronics of the newer cars make them much easier to control

Haha, indeed! My parents used to have a '78 model RS with Carrera body that they bought from the factory in Stuttgart, drove it around Europe and then brought it back here and sold it (as you could do then). If I win Powerball the first thing I will do is buy a 911 for my Dad. Actually two, better get one for myself as well.

Plenty more Porsches in Group Sb and Sc action here.
