Hey guys

I've been lucky to join the circlework team, to cover motorsport events in nsw, going to be busy from now on!

Here's my first, Toyo Tyres Compak Attak at WSID.

C&C Always welcomed









And there's the full gallery at http://www.circlework.com.au if youre keen!

Enjoy

Ahoy, well done on the circlework stuff, I sent you a PM about it.

1 is a tad soft, maybe because of lateral movement of shallow DOF? The front of the car is sharp, but drivers head seems a wee bit fuzzy?

2 is a nice drag racing image, chutes deployed, nice camera angle and good cropping. 3 is also a classic drag shot, pity the stands are so empty!! I like how the crop leaves space for the car to scream off into.

4 is gold mate. Hows the torque in that sucker!! The chassis is twisting, great timing with tyre deformation and a nice sharp shot to boot.

Well done!

I like #1 but it appears a little soft,
#2 is cool but I'm not a huge fan of the tilted angle
#3 Very cool, plenty of smoke, shame about the stands
#4 is my pick love that, just amazing stuff.

Youre both right, 1 is a bit soft..

..so here's a better one http://www.kylesharpphoto.com/gallery/d ... tt0821.jpg


Thanks for the feedback guys, appreciated

It's just a big shame that sport compact is not as popular with the fans as group one racing, it's an awesome event, with plenty of cars capable of 6's...
We had ~170-190 cars for this event, the most ever apart from Jamboree @ willowbank!

The one you linked to is very nice!

Number 4 is incredible. looks like the car is alive.

I would be very suprised if I didn't see number four on some motor magazine, it's a beauty.

Kyle fantastic shot on 4, really captured it at the right moment

Story behind it, WSID track barirers are knee height for 200m, I was crouched down on my knees for this photo, he was coming straight at me with the wheels up, if he was unable to straighten he would have had no problems mounting the fence!

I moved out of the way quickly, but not quick enough


Thanks for all the comments guys

I didnt expect them to generate this many posts

Is the 1st a Mazda Capella? Great images all round, must be fun down at trackside.

Ozi.

Yeap a capella it is

Trackside is fun, Looking forward to the east coast nationals (top fuel) in september :D

I once registered (back in my days as an RTA officer) a Mazda Capella with a 302 Ford V8 donk, completely re-engineered dash, brakes, suspension etc. It was quite a funny sight!
