Great motor racing pictures. What a variety of cars you have racing in Australia. In the pix (looks like the start of the race) I see Porsche, a nice '69 / 70 Chevy Camaro, a Falcon and I'm sorry but I don't recognize the other makes (maybe Australian ?).

I'm from Canada and back in the '60's I had a '67 Camaro RS, 327 (5.3 liter) V8, 4 spd. standard transmission. Those pix bring back some nice memories.

I like the real action quality you've captured, as opposed to typical calendar shots. You can see the effect of the weight transfering in the picture of the Camaro cornering. Excellent picture that leaves an impression of movement, from a still picture.

Thanks for the details of the pix and the links. Australia seems to have a very healthy racing scene.
