Open Drift Championship - Saturday 9/6/12

[CardHore]

I'd love to drift my rex... Being its a near minter it probably worth gettin a shit box. I'd look like a noob nerd lol

I'd just like to thank everyone who's looked and taken an intrest in the pictures from the odc event. I thought i d share my personal favourites from the pictures i took and i cant wait for next time. Hopefully with a bit better weather next time.

Ok so im about to admit defeat with alot of the editing i thought id be able to do. Ive been trying to edit out some of the fence posts since 7 am this morning, without much sucess im afride to say. i might be able to enlist a bit of help later on to give me some pointers but other than that about the best i can manage at the moment is just basic stuff. light levels which is basically shit.
hopefully with some pointers ill be able to progress further.

Caged - There are some people who like to drift in whatever they can afford, there are also some pompous fucks who would rather laugh behind a monitor at those drifting for a whole weekend for £30.

At Buxton we have £10-15k JZX's and S-bodies, and we have £100 scrapyard metal, all having a laugh, all learning and nobody being arrogant about what car they drive. If you don't like it, stick with Pod

so true mike buxton is definatly best atmosphere drift day in uk doesnt matter what car ur in we all twin up together, and grindrod in the battered bmw whips us with expensive/comp cars every month in the buxton twin comp

I couldnt agree more with both statements, buxton is quite unique, some stunning cars on track with some not so stunning. But i have the respect for drivers what ever they're driving. Buxton is so tight and to see trains of 4, 5 or 6 cars tandeming and avoiding the odd spin outs on a soaking track in the pouring rain certainly gets my respect.
There's perhaps only awesomefest that might be close to the sort of fun friendly enviroment buxton provides. Personally ill go back up there as often as i can to take pictures and enjoy the drivers skill at doing something i can only dream of doing. I think buxton brings home the simple message of "keep drifting fun", which it does very well indeed.

Lol at pod haven't been there in over two years. I just don't understand the no headlights look that ppl run. I am neither arrogant nor pompous, so maybe calm down a notch with the overly defensive attack yeah?

Peace and love to all!

Buy yourself a canon dslr and come and find me at the next buxton, i'll help you out

[MartyHillPhoto]

but simple pointers are. camera set to auto white balance, sunny conditons iso 100-200 cloudy 200-800 depends on cloud cover. Tv (shutter priority) setting. start with shutter speed of about 400/1 and get used to panning ect then lower down to about 200/1.

Caged- i think its just how it reads more than anything else, to some it comes across abit harsh. By all means its probebly not meant that way and those who know you would realise that. But no doubt alot here dont. But were all good now. So yeah all happy days now.

Marty, im looking into dslr's at the moment proberbly get one next month as its bonus time woooo. It would of been sooner but changing my car on friday so, its the slightly less important option but its only a month after all.

Thanks for the added tips, personally ill never turn down help or advice when it comes to photography.

i run the black and pink r32 with no headlamps, and i as most peeps run without headlamps mainly because of the cost of replacing if damaged and its trailer'd everywhere.Also when your sat behind the wheel it doesnt fookin matter if any panels or lights are on solong as the wheels go where you want em to, so who really gives a fuck
