hey
ok so i have a question, the trophy has great handling no? that was the point.
so why is the 'logo' picture in the top corner got a whole load of body role would another pic not be more appropriate ?
tell me to shut up if im wrong, it just seems a bit odd thats all. only food for thought, i like it, just looks like its gonna topple over thats all.
im prob just being pedantic.
i dunno its abit pathetic but if anyone wants to put me in my place or agree feel free.

Would a tri-pod picture be more appropriate :wink:

Thats what the Trophy looks like when cornering, if there was a picture of it stationary it would look less fun?

Here's the original:

It was me driving at an airfield trackday in devon taking a sharp 90 degree corner at medium speed.

Video is here: http://crowspeed.net/videos/airfield3/a ... print3.mov

It could well be time for a change though. Later in the year I'll be making some updates to the site, so will be on the lookout for some new images. Get snapping! 8)

there's two that spring to mind - one where the T is in mid air over a bump (i think someone was using it as an avatar) and there's a blinding 3 wheel moment that some one posted around 6-12 months back that shows a clean foot and a half a of air....

How about a little animation instead? That way we could have the photo change, possibly 3 different pics on rotation? That's an easy compromise! Anyone know any web scripting ;o) ;o)

the current pic is fine, but a 3 wheel pic (Trophy, with a rear wheel in the air - not a Reliant Robin!) would be superb imo.

As Cue said there is a cracking picture of one on 3 wheels somewhere. I forget the owner now ?

Thats the one Cue. That looks insane.

I personally love the one in mid air, am I right in saying it was taken by Evo?

Is that Upottery? Nice place but pretty bumpy and that was in my old Puma! Must have been pretty harsh!. Great video too :)

Do you know if they're they still using it for car events?
