Speed Echoes
A pre World War One GN Cycle Car, with a 1908 JAP air-cooled V8 engine. Built by Richard Scaldwell and seen here speeding along the Goodwood race track.
Eight hand-held exposures representing 1.5 seconds and about 30 yards of track. I'm guessing that last bit though - 30 yards in 1.5 seconds is around 40mph which seems probably about right given that the chicane is just out of shot on the right.
For all you continental types, 30 yards is approximately 27 metres.
