Our first one of the season and to be honest - Hell of a weekend – got drowned then sunburnt on Saturday (think webbed feet and sunburnt head lol) and actually blown over on several occasions on Sunday, put the 300mm on tried to lift it up, gave up trying to hold onto it / gave up and went back to the 70-200, even that was a struggle. Must have tried a million and one settings on the new body and ‘think’ that by the end of the weekend I found a few that worked. To say I took a few too many would be an understatement but hey - variety is the spice of life and all that.

So - 1DX, 70-200mkII with the 1.4 mkIII extender, hand held as per the norm.

#1 1/250, f/5.6, iso 100, 280mm a little 'damp' - it was actually drying up by now

#2 1/250, f/6.3, iso 100, 180mm then after lunch it was dry as a bone and flat out

I like the action in 2 the best but nice flames from the Healey.
 
and in my best Elvis impersonation "thank you very much"

Seriously - thanks guys, it really is appreciated

Sounds like you had some challenging conditions and still came away with some decent shots. I went to Snetterton last year to watch the HSCC and it's a great track for historic racing.
