Paul O'neil was driving one of the safety cars. I think it was the doctor's car.

I KNEW it! I spotted him walking through the paddock and mentioned who it was to my brother, but he didn't believe me as Paul hasn't got a BTCC seat. :D

Not bad, but a bit of variety would be nice. You've got over 100 near identical shots of a BTCC car side-on at the chicane and probably a similar number of identical shots from the support races.

I know what you mean, but working for Vauxhall on the sundays, and only getting breaks when the TC races are on is very limiting to how far i can go to take photos!

There's a knack to tracking the cars before you take the picture and follow through as the picture is taken. It takes a bit of practice. :o
