Went to both days of the Donington Historic festival, the rest of my pictures will be added when I have sorted them. Here is one I took of the Mega Mercedes-Benz C291.

Thoughts?

im no car techno, but is the bright light on the wheel the disk brakes lighting up as the car is braking! If so very good shot.
Also like how the drivers names are just in shot, far left. Michael Schumacher very nice!

Lovely photo, I took this many years ago at a actual race (no idea when) with my T90 and a borrowed Tamron 300 f2.8. (so manual focus and Fuji slide film)

Were you standing opposite the pits at Donnington?.

Sorry for the thread hijack

Yes, just before redgate corner

I was suggested I cropped a little from the front, thinking about it.

Thanks guys.

Nice shot was the only one to really give off glowing brakes.

Nice picture, I can't wait to see this in action at the Silverstone Classic. Didn't realise the group C series had allowed 3.5 litre cars to run, can't wait to hear that V12 sing in the back of the Merc.

Just late night Saturday Group C researchin' and came across this!

Just to let you know, that's a C11 not a C291. Nice photo though

Nice car. I especially like the lighting of the second photograph.

gotta love the car! It always amazes me to see the brakes glow. Interesting that you can even see it during day light.
