Artist's Comments

Oh yeah!

I can now scratch July 2006 as the last time I was trackside. In its place is April 2007. And a very happy little boy I am. Who needs chocolate when you can have V8 Supercars?
[I can't believe I just said that]

Testing at Queensland Raceway on Tuesday 10 April 2007 were Dick Johnson (Jim Beam) Racing, Triple Eight Race Engineering (Team Vodafone) and Paul Cruickshank (Glenfords) Racing.

Awesome shot, i've got one of those same shots almost i'll be loading up later =D

Nice touch with the b&W and the colour.

Is it just me, or is the orange on the tripple 888 cars never the same on TV or in photos as in real life, i've gotten a couple of shots close (but the shots are dark, that was the only way i could really capture the true colour of the orange and the grey that they use on those cars)

Thanks! I'm just glad I've seemingly not forgotten how to use the camera! It's the 70-200 f/2.8L non-IS. And I was so glad to have finally used it for its most intended purpose...

Yes they are. And none look quite so striking as the Team Vodafone cars...

He has his work cut out for him this year, but I caught up with CL briefly before I left and he said it'd been a really productive day. Fingers crossed then...

Thanks very much! Yes, I do quite like this one. As for the colours, I think it's a made-for-TV thing. Ferrari did a similar thing years ago when they ditched the traditional red in favour of bright orange so it looked more red on TV. In 888's case, I think the colour scheme fools the camera a touch, too, given it's mixed with the chrome finish...

I have no doubt he does.. I have my money on Kelly this year so that should help all the Ford boys I think. ;) Seems who ever I back has a shocker. It worked the last 2 years for Skaife. LOL!
