 This challenge came at just the right time. I wanted to capture the spirit of yester year operating today in active highly competitive racing in South Africa. The VW Beetle is not availablein Sotuh Africa since the late 70's. I used the Sigma with a 1.4 converter

I like this shot of the Austin A35 but am confused by your reference to VW Beetles

Nice shot here with good effort on the panning of the car. I think it could do with a little boost on the levels and exposure. This little jumbo seems to be reallymoving fast with the rims blured nicely to add to that effect. Curious to see sutter speed at the end.

It's been years since I've been to the classic saloon racing, do the A35s still go a good deal faster than perhaps they ought within the rules lol.
I had a friend that raced a MK1 Jag and these used to overtake him on the straight hmmmm
