It was a beautiful Saturday and weather was perfect for the first ever car versus airplane race in Asia. This race is organized by the Changi Airport Group and its one of the shoots that I’ve done for them. Here are some of the highlights of the day, worth the sunburn! (I’m still peeling.. :p)

Love this shot a lot. I managed to catch the driver and pilot in a friendly exchange before they assumed their positions for the race. The escort (with the Airport Group) for the driver (right of picture) happens to be a friend from my JC.

We have a winner, Yuey Tan! Its a lucky shot to have caught the cork. Notice the purple cap over the his shoulders, it was knocked off by the cork.

For the race, the plane had to take off after reaching full speed and by the time it returned, all the spectators were gone. So sad…
