Brilliant shots, especially like the one of the rider looking straight at you. What equipment do you use?

many thanks for the comment, Equipment used for these pics was Nikon D3s and Nik 70-200 f2.8 VR, Nik 300mm f4 (& for the group head-on shot nik 300mm with nik 1.7x converter), also had a Nik 24-85 with me but just used it around the paddock. tried to keep the kit down to min (getting old & tired!!!) so left the 300 f2.8 at home as the D3s body allows me to shoot at higher ISO and still retain quality so the f4 was a lot more comfortable to carry.

great shot of Cameron Donald's eyes. Were you shooting from spectator viewpoints?

No I have an MCUI pass (member of IMPA) and was shooting from 'officials' areas, the Cameron shot was from inside the Lindsay hairpin, beside the flag marshall, the Bruce Anstey & 'group' shot were from specatator area on Outside of Tournagrough (outside the bend on the inside of the circuit, if that makes sense?)
