I've been on a few laps of Silverstone filming Derek Warwick back in the 1990's <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derek_Warwick> in a Jag XJ220. It was wet so he topped out at about 160. Trying to hold a camera steady aimed at him in those circumstances is near impossible, but doable, just. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
