As a photo/ journalist for many years for a Speedway publication I shot many thousands of Sprintcar, Speedcar, Solo & Sidecar photos at Parramatta City Raceway, Newcastle Motordrome and Gosford Speedways over the years 1995 to 2004.

I have now scanned many hundreds of the negatives of those photos and am embarking on a series of top photos, put on DVD using great software, music, effects and titles for you to enjoy.

All DVDs playable on most computers with Windows Media or Quick Time software and of course DVD players and TVs.

You also have the access to my many of thousands of vintage Speedway photos via these DVDs - bikes and cars.
