The 'what is *insert event* like for photography' thread.

[Matt Sayle]

Right, it is that time of year when we are looking forward to the longer, less snowy days and planning our years of motorsport action!

So rather than have a billion threads with people asking what is such and such a track like etc I thought I would create one big thread were everyone can ask there questions and hopefully get a decent answer!

So I will start.

What is Mallory like for the Motox meeting?

Do you mean the Brit MXGP?

If so, its not a bad track for photography but its quite expensive to buy a ticket for (assuming you aren't media) and to be fair you'll get more impressive photos for less at a national (Maxxis or the Red Bull Pro Nationals, the latter being better IMHO)or even local level and less chavs/crowd.

So unless you really want the world MX1/MX2 championship as your subject, I'd probably give it a miss in the UK. Its better at other rounds BTW... Lierop rocked!
