F1 Day At Silverstone

Post by srhutch » Sun Jul 08, 2007 11:01 am

I had the pleasure of being a guest of Honda F1 Racing on Friday.

The company I work for supplied the compressors for the new Honda Wind Tunnel, so we were invited up for the day (although the company had to pay)

Anyway the event was hosted by Murray Walker, and consisted of watching the two practice sessions a couple of pit walks, and the other races etc.

Food and drink was all free, just a shame I had to drive.

Took hundreds of photos, not had chance to go through them yet properly, but thought I would post a few.

because the commenters are in the testosterone rich age group of 14-24. Too much testosterone, plus being a dork and sitting in front of a computer too much and not having a real life outside of the cyberworld apparently make for aggressive comments.

Just my opinion though. I see a lot of that in the ricer forum articles that my nephew sends me links to.

Hi,

Great Photos, Love the 6th one, shame something is in the shot to the right.....

What camera are you using?

Also what compressors do you make/sell? You dont have anything today with Air Cons do you?

Cheers

Paul

I have a Canon 300D and was using a 75-300 lens for most of those shots.

The company "HPC Compressed Air Systems" distribute Kaeser Compressors in the UK, don't believe we get involved with air con much though.
