Thats the problem with XR2s. The wheels always look to far in. Those are obviously a RWD offset of 19 or whatever. Looks cool, but I wonder if it affects the handling?

Hello mate. Nice to put a face to a name. The fiestas do suffer with the extra weight of passengers but still think it did well (considering we was beating 280bhp subaru's with only 100bhp).

Digital Camera? When I got mine I was crap at anything moving. Few things I do which you may want to try.

1) Set the camera to the fastest shutter speed.
2) Pan (follow) the subject as it travels along
3) My Canon if you press the button down half way a little green box appears, that tells you where its focusing. I find that if I do that, it focuses on the track. Then when the subject gets to the tarmac where its focused take the shot. Or maybe just before the object gets into the frame.

F1 cars move pretty quickly, but even I managed to get some resonable shots using these methods
