Cheers Phil - I had a good friend call me tonight who also said that for the effort of getting accredited, it may be worth just sticking to spectator areas at club level motorsports, as some good photos can still be taken from such areas, and I've got the equipment to do a decent job for personal usage.
He also mentioned the insurance requirements, and so I'm thinking for the time being, I'll see if I can a few pieces of work published so I've got a bigger portfolio before worrying too much about being on the 'other side of the fence'.
It's not my living (as 80% of my time is filming / photography for aviation) so I don't think there's any need to rush like everyone to get in the way of folks who make their living from motorsport photography.
Appreciate the info though - as a few photographers I've spoken to have often had conflicting messages or have been unwilling to assist in helping a new guy out.
Matt.
