National
Series Competition 2007
Huntly Speedway 28th April 2007:
For the
first time the Media were invited to cover this
action packed Round 2 of the New Zealand North
Island day and night event held at the Huntly
Speedway Stadium. As the spectators sit in the
stadium the Media made their way into the
designated areas after a briefing on the known dangers and
risks from the Organisers. Any Motor racing sport is
dangerous and for these photographers, registered
ORANZ drivers and MNZ riders, this all knowing fact
is simply part of the event.
To
work along side Top Photographers is a highly
competitive industry in New Zealand and Brigit
received a warm welcome as they shared shots between
races. She got some of her best shots during the
daytime racing
with the kind of results worth smiling about. Even under two main stadium lights
(night racing) she
got the
Arty Farty
Award shot
of the night amongst the Media crew
for effort.
A nine
minute video was filmed and created by Dave Shaw
'Petrolfumes'
of different Offroad races and classes. The video
clip
Stadium
Style
available on youtube with many other motor
racing events filmed by Petrolfumes. The fastness of
the Offroad racing and opportunities of spectacular,
action jump shots had Brigit smiling. A passion for
motorcycles combined with the Offroad Quad bike
racing on the day is like the icing on the cake for
Brigit.
Many
Thanks to ORANZ.
