47205 is steaming nicely on some tidy early Mk II's forming the 0621 Dundee - Edinburgh on March 25th 1986 at Inverkeithing. The "Circuit" turns like these were some of the last surviving steam heat turns which would last until later that year.

I've been a regular at the British Grand Prix for the past 25 years but 2019 was my first experience of the Belgian Grand Prix.
The British Red Cross provide medical cover off-circuit at Silverstone and their Belgian counterparts do likewise at Spa-Francorchamps with a range of vehicles dotted around the site.
One of the contingent was this older Ford Transit parked up away from the crowds waiting to go into action.

Het Circuit Nijvel (Circuit Nivelles-Baulers) is een voormalig racecircuit in de Belgische plaats Baulers.
De Formule 1 Grand Prix Formule 1 van België werd in 1972 en 1974 op het Circuit Nijvel gehouden, nadat Spa-Francorchamps te gevaarlijk werd bevonden. Het was aanvankelijk de bedoeling dat het ene jaar de race in Zolder werd gehouden en het andere in Nijvel, ten zuiden van Brussel. Het circuit was kort daarvoor nieuw gebouwd.
Het circuit was voor zijn tijd zeer modern met ruime uitloopstroken, maar daardoor ook erg saai. Ook was het moeilijk de financiën rond te krijgen. Al na het eerste jaar had men grote problemen, en met veel moeite werd in 1974 weer een race gehouden. In 1976 kon men niet voldoende geld bij elkaar krijgen. Daarna zou het nooit meer een Grand Prix ontvangen en raakte het zelfs zijn circuitlicentie kwijt. In 1981 viel het doek definitief.
Beide races die gehouden zijn in Nijvel werden gewonnen door Emerson Fittipaldi. Het circuit heeft jarenlang ongebruikt gelegen maar is recentelijk grotendeels omgebouwd tot industriepark. Er rest nog slechts een klein deel van het oorspronkelijke circuit.

Built in 1971, the circuit hosted two rounds of the Formula One Belgian Grand Prix in 1972 and 1974 during the time when the race was supposed to alternate between Walloon and Flemish circuits. Designed by Roger Caignie to be a safe alternative to Spa, Nivelles was perhaps too safe. It had massive runoff areas, was flat and featureless, and was described by many drivers as being bland and sterile.[citation needed] Nivelles was not popular amongst the paying spectators since they thought that they were not close enough to the action.[citation needed]
The track ran into economic problems very early in its life. The organiser went bankrupt in 1974. They were however able to find enough sponsors to organise that year's Formula One race. In 1976 it was once again Nivelles's turn to organise the Belgian Grand Prix, but the track was not considered safe enough for Formula One because of the condition of the tarmac. By 1980 the circuit was deemed too dangerous for car racing, but motorcycle events continued until 1981. When the circuit licence expired on June 30, 1981, the track was finally closed for good. Until the late 1990s the pit buildings and the circuit were left abandoned, and it was possible to drive illegal laps around the track. However, in the early 21st century the track was demolished and is now a part of an industrial estate, but it is still possible to see traces of the circuit.
The fastest F1 lap at the circuit was set in 1974 by Denny Hulme, who set a time of 1:11.31 in his McLaren-Ford.

Pulse signal router. Gate input signal drives a counter chip that routes gate signals round-robin style to 3 outputs (on steps 1, 3, 4.) A DIP switch to select the counter chip's loop point, and a push button to halt.
I love the small world that the macros lens gives us a glimpse of. ALways been fascinated with the internals of electronics.
Was playing around a little more with my new Nikon SB-24 flash; I decided to shoe-mount it (place it in my shoe instead of on a stand), and I put a blue filter over it to give the circuit board a 'colder' look. I took the picture into Photoshop and made the picture blur a little on top and bottom, and adjusted the color to a more neutral tone (it was bluish straight out of camera).
The picture is of a circuit board from an old 10 GB hard drive I had laying around (there's a picture of the other side of the drive earlier in my photostream).
Strobist Info: Nikon SB-24 triggered via Cactus trigger, with 'Primary Blue' filter taped over the light, mounted inside my dress shoe, set to 1/16 power, about 6" up and to the left of the circuit board. I took the picture on my bed, because space is tight in my dorm room...

Our boiler needed a new water sensor. This was the chip that was replaced.

Yas Marina Circuit was unveiled on 30 October 2009 with the final race of the Formula One™ World Championship – the inaugural Formula 1™ Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix – to a crowd of around 50,000.
After two years of intensive planning and construction, which involved 14,000 staff and 35 million construction manhours, the versatile facility opened its doors to a captivated public. The whole of UAE was eager to take in the beautiful landscaping, traditional Arabic culture and welcoming hospitality alongside sensational on-track action. Yas Marina Circuit would encourage the growth of sporting culture in the UAE and soon become the centre for motorsport excellence in the Middle East.
Though still in its formative years and continuously growing in its offerings, Yas Marina Circuit is considered one of the most technologically advanced circuits in the world. As a training ground and home for motorsports success in the Middle East, it is Yas Marina Circuit’s ambition to have a UAE national competing as a driver in F1™ within 10 years.
