    Do I go to Thruxton BTCC?

    What is this track like with shooting behind the fence. The longst lens I have is 200mm on a 1.3 crop would this be ok from the spectator areas? If so any good tips on where to go?

    The Ultimate Car Rig Photography Thread!

    is there and off the shelf product that gets the clamps further away from the cups? I have seen the cups with an extension pole on but this means you lose the swivel mount, and means another 60 odd quid each.
