Good good :-) Was actually a fun day, we were there for the best part 4-5hours, and a few people left early. But would be good to do it again sometime soon though.

It was nice having a few scoobs turn up though, Would be nice to have a few more, just beward of the curb there for anyone with lower cars or splitters, but you can drive around and park up to it :-)

A lot of people have been and done it :-) just perfect weather for it yesterday, and really happy with the blurred shots, should be arranging another one soon anyway.

As you can see quite clearly by the second blurred one the scoob is in the lead against the r32 (how it should be :-P ). We were only going about 5mph for the shot though and it didn't take too long to get the hang of it. But they look awesome :-)

Great to see a photo shoot thread. We used to have some great photographers at every event.

Some of the cars had as much graffiti on them as the walls!

Seriously though, some of that artwork is amazing. It would be good to think that such talent could be harnessed for the betterment of those involved. Sadly, that's rarely the case. At least they can exhibit their work in a 'controlled' environment.

Huge amount of ignorance on display there John...most of the work there is by artists who earn a living from their skills as artists...I'm out and about at the moment but if you are actually interested I'll post some links for you. A nice easy google for you will be Brave One. Ian

Not got a lot of time today but happy to let you have more links if you are interested...most of the old painters are in their late thirties/early forties and if not full time artists then most do commission pieces....

This is something one of my friends organised a couple of years ago...sadly the Anglia Poly site redevelopment has meant they have now been lost.
