Race Day

This was our first BSB Race and the first time at Outlon Park so we didn't really know what to expect.  Having spent some time walking around on the first day of the meeting we had decided to stand near Knickerbrook where you could see a reasonable amount of the race and were close enough to the circuit to get some good photos without fences obscuring the view.  As expected, this was a popular place so we were glad we'd arrived early, this also meant we avoided the traffic and got to see plenty of action in the warm-ups etc.  The weather was overcast and threatening rain, we just hoped it would hold off during the racing.

There aren't many places where you can get a full day's entertainment for £10.00 but that's certainly what I got when I went to Cadwell Park to see the last day of the Norasport Supermoto Racing 2007 National Championships.  Once it got underway the racing was fast and furious, many races in quick succession each lasting only around 10 minutes.  The short

The weather's been fairly awful this summer so we weren't hopeful that it'd stay dry and it even seemed possible that it might need to be cancelled. I was keen to see if I could get some reasonable photos but having never been there before wasn't sure if that would be possible. I took my 5D and Canon 100-400mm IS lens I also had a Canon 1.4x Teleconverter and a Kenko Pro 300 2x with me.
