2010 Haltech Compac Attak - Sydney's premier Sport Compact event

Well people the wait is finally over. I have sorted, processed and uploaded all my images from the 2010 Haltech Compac Attak event (all 1107 of them) held at Sydney Dragway last month, and what an event it was.

Compac Attak is Sydney's premier Sport Compact event and it just keeps getting bigger and better every year and fortunately for us, so does the weather. At this years event we were welcomed with clear blue skys and perfect weather for racing. 

Full Throttle Friday FTW!

Oh how time fly's when your havin fun, or at least waiting till the next meet comes around......

Sydney Dragway opened its gates for another 'Full Throttle Friday' meet that drew some great cars, all ready and willing to get on thr track.

Sport Compact Drag Racer Mag Feature

The long awaited issue #4 of Sport Compact Drag Racer Magazine hit the stands today and is feature packed.

In this issue is the shoot i did some 9 months ago for the magazine of the Oak Flats Muffler Men RX3 Coupe.

2x the flash = 2x the fun. "Freaky Friday" gets strobed.

Since i first started using lighting with my photography, and before i got my media pass i have often said to people "why do the guys on the track use on camera direct flash?" In most cases, as with all photography subjects, it delivers a very harsh light that gives the impression of a spot light held pointing towards the car/person which results in some not too special final images. I do say in most cases, as there are a select few that are able to come away with some great images. Even with this way of lighting. I am however not one of those people....

Time to get trackside...

Today i finally recieved my ANDRA National Media Accreditation pass in the mail and just in time for the up-coming events at WSID this month.

Sport Compact Drag Racing at its finest

August 29-30 saw the 19th running of the Fast Fours Jamboree at Qld's Willowbank Raceway. This event is by far the biggest and most anticipated meeting in the Aus Sport Compact scene. With participants and spectators coming from all over Aus and even oversea's to see some of the biggest names in the scene battle out for top spot! PAC Performance, GAS Motorsport, the Rayglass crew from NZ and even a visiting Titan crew from the USAall keen to push thier cars to the limit for our viewing pleasure. What more could you ask for??

Oz Drag Racing at its best

Over the past month we have had 2 huge drag racing events in Oz with the biggest Sport Compact meet of the year the Fast Fours Jamboree 19 in late Aug at Willowbank Raceway QLD, and over this weekend the 2009 Fuchs Aus Nationals at Sydney's WSID.

Over the next week i should have images up in a gallery on my new website, until then, get to WSID tomorrow for the last day of drag mayhem!
