just got back. unbelievable. i have over 100 pictures and video. jawdropping stuff. im talking twin turbod Diablos, super ultra rare ferraris, (P3 anyone?), crashed F1 cars on Laguna Seca (first and probably LAST time F1 cars allowed on the track), the brand new F1 car lapping Laguna Seca in probably 1 minute flat, and then WHAILING on the rev limiter.
one of the many highlights besides the multiple enzos, challenges, challenge GT cars racing at the same time was the F50 GT CAR!!!!!!!!!! chassis #1. i have full vid and pics just gotta get everythng together.
it really does pay to have a friend in the Ferrar Club of America and also have 2 carsa in the challenge series.
BTW, the first publicly sold Enzo was auctioned off the other night for $1.1M. that was right after a 1969 Camaro Trans Am car and right before a GT3 RS Race car.
i also have vid of the new Chrysler 1000hp car lapping laguna.
i really want the thread to get stickyd in the Car Gallery just simply because there is soooooo much amazing stuff that there arent many pictures of, let alone video!!!!
i know you guys will go nuts over this stuff. mclaren, s7s, every single ferrari imaginable(were over 550 this year at the concours, largest single event in the world EVER), lambos, you name it. fucking amazing bros.
U-hum....
Sounds very interesting... but...
Pics - or STFU... :P ;)
--- but we will give you 4 hours to get em all up... :)

haha sorry jerk, i mean RC, im goin to bed right now, i have to edit together the video bits i got and upload over 100 pictures all for your fucking enjoyment ;)
photobucket isnt working, where can i upload say........a few pics of a Mclaren, an Enzo and my friends Spyder with F50 brakes, tubi and HRE chromes wheels with Ferrari inserts?
and this is for good faith before i get the ultimate goods up.
i was inches away from 1 of 3 F50 GT cars in the history of man. it was like mass was taking place in front of me.

its kinda sad, i saw over 5 enzos, and got kinda bored seeing them....i know i know, i never thought i would ever say that. but when you see 3 in a row, they just arent as special.
here are a few pics, ill get the rest up tomorrow.
i have a lot of vid, its not ultra clean as i used my regular digital camera and not a vid camera, but the unmistakable sound of an F1 engine is awesome!

guys i couldnt take pictures of 4 days, i went to multiple auctions, saw Gonzalezs 212 Ferrari get auctioned off, saw Carrolll Shelby auction off almost 7 ACs in a row, including the very first 289 2004 cobra, chassis #1.
went for less than $60k :(

good pics, WRXed...
the only thing i dont like about car shows are 2 things...
very few angles possible, and too many people in my pictures of georgous autos.
looking forward to the rest :)

08-17-2004, 12:13 PM
yea i got some dino pics, there were a ton, but you gotta realize with 550+ ferraris, its like overload. :lol: and sorry for whatever angles, but with all the people its hard to get perfection.
also, does anyone know where i can upload multiple pictures, get great clarity, and nto have it take hours?
You can find the list of suggested hosts in the sticky topic in car gallery.
I'd suggest imageshack so you could post the pics using the thumbnails it automatically create for you, but you have to upload a picture at a time. terahertzcomputing allows multiple uploads but no automated thumb and I hoep you don't plan to post hundreads of high-res pics in a topic nobody will be able to load :P ;)

I love stuff like that. The Historic Sportscar Races is another fantastic event to which I highly recommend all to attend if you can get a chance.

shows 4 MPG on the viper price sticker! LMAO the tree huggers will have a field day!
A dumb Brit question for you US guys - someone mentioned a Camaro Trans Am in the thread - Is that a typo? I thought they were two different cars??
Edit - Good pics by the way, WRX'd and thanks for sharing! :D
I didn't see the message but Trans Am is also a racing series.
So a Trans Am Camaro would be a Camro setup for Trans Ams series racing. :)
