The Gumball 3000 GRD Built Subaru STi Promotions Car
James Greenwood of Greenwood Racing Developments asked if I could take some pictures of a car that his tuning company built on Saturday just gone.
So I turned up at the GRD‘ workshop and I saw the Gumball 3000 Promotions car sitting in front of me.It turns out GRD built the Stage4 500+bhp Subaru (owned by Andrew Brimecome) that Gumball use for brand promotion
James wanted some pictures of the car for the GRD website, so he passed me the keys and disappeared.Andrew enters the Gumball 3000 in his 1250bhp Viper and lets them use his Subaru whenever they want.
It’s currently lined up to be at a trade show in September and he’s also giving it to them to use in next year’s Gumball. He thinks it may be the Jackass guys, but the celebrity has yet to be selectedAn hour after starting taking shots, Andrew turned up and after chatting for a bit he called some friends so I could do some rolling shots.
These are some of the edited images from the shoot:

Was out on Saturday 27th getting my car serviced at Greenwood Racing when James, the owner, asked if I would take some shots of his car (the ‘pimp wagon’ 🙂 )
I was happy to oblige and below’s a sample of what I sent over to him today.
It wasn’t an easy shot to get as it was a bright afternoon plus there was a lot of clutter around the car (cones, bins etc). I found a better location for the car by a large gravel mound, but James was too tired after a day of playing with his spanners to move the car.
So I had to do the best I could where it was.
I used a couple of bare speedlights I had in the bag in order to separate the car from the background, plus and a little bit of photoshop magic and hey presto 🙂
