French National Rallycross 2007

Here are a few of the better shots I took over the weekend at the French national Rallycross championship round in Bergerac. Nothing Italian I'm afraid but plenty of spirited driving.

This year we had the sun and the dust, last year it was rain and mud. Conditions were fine so long as you were out in front.

Conditions were more challenging the further down the field you were. Even a couple of BMW's made it out onto track, a 3 series compact and a couple of Z3's

The big boys were also out to play, and as usual they had a varied selection of cars.

Nice piccies! Your either very close to the action or have a darn good zoom!

[Steve Webb]

I was using a canon 350d DSLR with a 75-300 zoom lens, lets you get pretty close to things. At least at the circuit you could shoot from places that meant you didn't lots of safety fence in the pics.
Oh and thank god for digital, I think i shot 170+ pics over the course of the afternoon.

Great shots! Also heard good things about the Canon...it won't fit in my pocket either, but then neither does the price! :lol:
