Good places for pics at Rockingham BTCC
I've got some VIP tickets for Rockingham tomorrow, they are access most areas (pits etc) as guests of Renault. Are there any good vantage points for photographing the circuit. These are not media trackside passes so I will be restricted to the normal team areas as far as I know.
Any suggestions welcome as I don't even know the circuit layout at the moment. |

pretty much nowhere i'm afriad. at least no where you can get really close. you can stand on top of the pits and maybe get some shots as they come behind you.
my advice would be to get up high in the granstand, turn the camera off and enjoy being able to watch the whole race like some scalextric set out before you. I love Rockingham! |

actually, thinking about it some more... you might be able to get close (although behind the catch fencing) if you get right up in the inside corner where the chicane is (just beside the competitors tunnel). But thats only good if they are using the chicane which i'm not sure they are. it might also be out of bounds since last time i was there

I was at Rockingham today and will be again tomorrow. I have a feeling that my camara might be staying the bag for most of the day. It has to be worst track in the country to shoot at from the other side of the fence.

I'll just settle for some pictures in the pits and paddock then. I'm not overly bothered, it is a prize that we won earlier in the year and someone wants a few pictures of the day for a news letter.

We came back early, this was the highlight of the day
 . I've blanked the eyes out to protect the innocent.
