I would have loved to sample it again Stu, but as Chris discovered they ran out of food after YOU and your friend Mick ate everything they had

Default Roling Road day Photography

Hi everyone
I will be at Prosport on rolling road day with my camera and lighting equipment. Whilst I am there I will be taking various photographs of the event including a large group shot of all the cars together (with and without owners) and other shots to try and capture the atmosphere of this charity event.
The main reason though will be to photograph each participants car on the rolling road at full belt.
Prints will cost either £10 for a 10x8 and £15 for a 12x10.
the profits will go to charity. The prints will also be professional photographic prints not ink jets.(I will require paying on the day and I will post the prints on to you)
I have been at Prosport today to do a test shot to see what sort of photographs I can achieve of a car on the R/Road. I have also done some extra shots which I have posted below.
Big thanks to Pete and all the TOP Staff @ Prosport today for all their help

See you then

Best Regards Warren

If you think you would like your car photographing on the R/R
Please let me know just so that I can get a rough idea of how many shots I might be doing.

If poss give it a wash there's only so much I can do in Photoshop

Nice one
Warren

Nice one Andy, thats 2 STI Type 8's in WRBlue up to now, any more Takers!!!

Regarding the jet wash, there is a BP Garage just past station rd on the right if you are coming from S/port, not sure but I think they have one. Better still wash it at home they day before.
Cheers

From Prosport, back onto Didsbury road and take and left turn, a little down the road on the right is a proper hand car wash, very good as well. If you've not had time, or its particulaly dirty, you could always nip up to there before your run

But if your asking if you can run, I'd say we're pretty much full for the day. By all means come along and watch though, it's not a closed shop

Default Thats all folks!

I think 20 runners, and 5 reserves is enough for the day boys and girls . Everyone from the SMACS has a place, and if you havn't, your too late .

Just to finally recap then, some guidelines for the day:

1/ the day starts at 9am
2/ get there on time
3/ make sure your car is clean
4/ bring £40 in this format 2*£5 3*£10
5/ be prepared to sign the disclaimer before you run, no signature, no run.
6/ no buggering off after your run
7/ look smart, you'll be on camera
8/ dont warm your car up by driving round the industrial estate at warp speed (like I did last year )
9/ enjoy yourself
10/ I'll pick the names out of a hat for the running order on the day


Here is the final list then:
1/ cw42 my03 sti, full milltek system, k&n panel filter, ppp fuel pump, tek3, 3 port bs.
2/ pimmo2000 MY99, green pannel filter, centre cat removed, Gold Wheels
3/ the chief MY99, STI panel filter, STI Backbox
4/ barnesy MY00 uk, full decat,sti filter,tek 3.
5/ Gillp95 MY98, STI panel filter, Magnex Backbox.

8/ The Supermiester - MY03 STi UK, TSL "Thundercat" sports cat, centre pipe & GrpN backbox, APS Induction kit, tek3, Walboro fuel pump, Burberry Cap and driving gloves.
9/ John WRX brand new sti motor, vf35, fmic, walbro, headers, injectors, tek 3, blitz nur spec r system, blitz induction kit, 3 port boost sol, lots of other bits which i cant remember.
10/ Tony Burns MY03 Spec C, STi panel filter and H&S back box
11/ dale my02 spec c (too many mods to list!)
12/ scoobyverysoon - MY00 - magnex centre decat - blitz nur spec backbox

I am coming just as a spectator as I had mine rolling roaded at Prosport last week, I would love a nice picture of my car though if Warren could take one of it outside Prosport ?

Just to echo what Chris said, last Saturday Pete had a complaint from one of the neighbours as the 409 bhp Evo was giving high speed passenger rides up and down the estate and the neighbour threatened to call the police, lets give Pete a break by being on our best behaviour !
