First skids of the season...

[Witch]

In the light of the horrific weather which has swept most of the south of the country this week so far, we weren't exactly optimistic about the chances of the Ipswich Speedway press & Practise day going ahead today, however, some of us must have done something mighty good in a past life as by a miracle the rain held off all day and we got well over two hours of track time this afternoon.

1) Team Captain Chris Louis is the first out to check out the track...

2) Reserve Tobi Kroner

3) Polish rising star Jarek Hampel

4) Piotr Swiderski - new to the Witches side this season

5) Jarek trying a practise start

6) Swiderski again....from the outside of the track this time

7) Another from the outside - Jarek

All taken with the 30D and the 70-200 f2.8.

My shoulders are going to ache tomorrow - I'd forgotten how heavy that damned lens is!!!

Thanks all for your extremely kind comments! My next meeting now isn't until early April but there will be more shots coming up here regularly through the season from then on.
