Almost but not quite

Photographing a remote control car race was new for me, but that was my challenge at the Crown Square Remote Control Car Race 2008 on Sunday.

I know. Fail big time. On the bright side, they do make great teaser photos. Look out for my article in The Sunday Post this weekend, and yes, I did get photos with whole cars in them.

My thanks to racer Philip and one-man pit crew Andy for sharing their insights at the track, and also to Teo and Shukri at Hobbymart for answering all manner of (possibly dumb) questions, and to Tay for hooking me up and trying in vain to explain to me what “heat” means in race terms. I had a surprisingly good time learning about all this. :-D
