Default Something a little different

Hey all, got something a little different for you that was made on the weekend.

We had our EP offroad state titles here in Western Australia over the weekend, made this at the track. You'll need quicktime.

Check it out http://www.rcracephotos.com/special/bunbury.html

Thats really cool! I might have to do one of those sometime. was it a chore to set it up ?

I've been to bunbury, quite nice round there (apart from the flys!) didn't see the track though! We saw the one at rockingham but I think thats gone now ?
How many race at a big race over there in WA ?

Default Bunbury

Heya Jimmy

It's the first one i'd made so a little trial and error, but once i figured out what I was doing it wasn't too bad. Should be easier for you with the fisheye you've got. (if you wanna know what equipment/apps to use/process with etc, feel free to email me)

Basically we spent friday there practicing, 2wd mod and stock raced saturday, both truck and 4wd, mod and stock ran sunday. So i've got twice the number of pics from sundays racing than saturdays. Bunbury is about 200km south of Perth where most of us live, so we booked out a motel, and had several rooms next to each other... fun nights!

Rockingham has closed due to a lack of members. I think the track itself is still there, but it's not used.

Don't know the exact numbers, but we had about 50 i'd guess? There was a lot of the regular club racers who didn't go actually, so should have been more. I got my butt handed to me, 9th in mod truck

lol

The rockingham track looks really great, cant beleive its not used!
I wish we had a track like that, with fencing round it etc and plenty of parking etc.
its almost 3 years since we were in bunbury so the ole memory is fading.

Default Tracks

We have an interclub at another track in Carine at the end of the month, and then my home track at Bayswater a month later. I'll be making panoramas of them as well. Our 4th local track won't see an interclub till early next year, so be a while before i make a pano of it.

Mybe a consistant 80 would be better than 60 or 105 (nothing in-between?).
