Tessa from Mercury Motorsport got in touch with me a little while back to see if I could shoot some images at their charity dyno day on 26 February 2011. As all proceeds were to be donated, I was happy to help out in whatever way I could. Herself and Trent organised the event to raise money for Brisbane flood victims, hit so hard back in January of this year. Notably, $1974 was raised for victims – the same number amount as Queensland’s most destructive floods 37 years ago. Creepy!
