IPMS-UK National Championships 1999
The following shots were taken at last years National Championships at Telford. Unfortunately, due to some camera problems most of the photos taken did not come out properly, but the following were good enough to post... Any camera blur should add to the impression of speed! :o)
For an alternate view, take a look at my fiancées report on the weekend!

The model was built in 1992 for the Nationals of that year and did win its class. Since then it has won first place several comps and a few special awards, currently the Glasgow Airport Trophy won at last years Scottish Nationals. After last years Nats. I think it will be retired from competition!
