August 22, 2010

James Redman recently whizzed me a mail about the Gathering of Legends Racers Symposium being organised by Brian Redman’s Targa Sixty Six, the team behind Rennsport Reunion.

Hero at Cadwell Park

March 18, 2010

As previously mentioned, I was out shooting a Boxster feature for 911 & Porsche World magazine at Cadwell Park last Sunday. The photographer was all-round good guy, John Colley. Being out all Saturday night and most of Sunday didn’t earn me that many Mothers’ Day brownie points, but it was time well spent: I learnt [...]
