Default PFM New Vic Drag Racing Photographer

G'day guys,

My names Chris Thorogood and I'm doing the Victorian Drag racing work for Ford Performance Magazine. I'll usually be at Calder Park on Friday nights and try to make it to Heathcote on some Sundays for the TestnTune.

Recently photographed the Geelong All Ford Day, FPV Family Day and Calder Park Muscle Car Nats for PFM and really enjoy shooting the blue badge.

You'll notice me because I'll be the one with the big white lens with a stick on it! If you see me dont hesitate to approach me about you and your car as I'd like to give you guys some exposure in the mag.

If there's a few of you going to a meet then just PM me and i'll get in contact with you.

Cheers!
