blah, blah, blah......as you know by now the annual Ferrari Club Rally is on this week in Perth.

It started on Sunday with the Concorso, a very sunny day and lots of reflections from the trees wasn't ideal (for photos) but a great day. :D

Today was the track day which was even better, those pics/vids will be in my next update. :wink:

All 95 high-res pics can be viewed on my website :arrow: www.ozcarsightings.com

In the carpark we had the real stars - my WRX and a friends Elise. :P

"That" F50 - #341/349 will always be special to me now! :D

360 Challenge, man does this thing sound good - I could here it being driven off the truck from a mile away. :shock:

A pair of 550M's, and a Barchetta - again the only one in Perth (he also owns the 40th Ann. Murcielago and a 996 GT2). :D

Marvellous, some nice cars, nice colors, nice background and nobody around, that's good! The blue Dino is damn sexy! As is the Barchetta with its light grey interior! of course F40' and F50 were the stars of the show, and both are to die for! Can't wait to see the rest of the coverage :good:

thanks!

They were funny, first they sat in front of the 512M so I wanted to take a pic but then they ran off and thats when I got them infront of the 355. :D

btw, after pic 89, I have some red crosses ?

Fixed! They are just the onboard shots from the F50 ride, but I actually forgot to upload them. :oops:

Thanks. :wink:



BTW : do you have an interior shot of the barchetta in order to see the little plate ?

I have two but you can't read the plate on either of them. :bah:

Let me say, dingo... that these are your best pics as far as I remember, sincerely - top quality, perfect angles, locations, they're just... perfect!! :D very very good job mate... and thanks for sharing!! :P


Thanks, its appreciated. :D

Excellent post! Beautiful cars, beautiful locale and great photo composition... 8)

BTW - was the Concorso at a park or something? I liked the fact that the cars had some breathing room - could walk around and admire the cars from all angles without tripping on someone or another car.

... contrast this to a big scale event like the Monterey Concorso and Pebble Beach CdElegance that I went to this year - it was rugby scrumfest ... though I did get to see GTOs and delectable Alfas and Duesies there :drool:

At a resort, next to the Golf Course. :wink: It was definately a scenic place to have it, and as you say plenty of room to look closely at the cars. :D

The circumstances may not been perfect. But, dude, you turned up with some breathtaking pics! The angles are great, the quality is great, just a great job :D

My favourite pic is this one:

Just a question: was there still any grass left when all the Ferraris were gone? :P

Haha, not sure - I left for my ride in the F50 before all the other cars vacated the area. :wink:

There was a wedding in that exact area just after the show, so I'm guessing burnouts on the grass were not allowed. :P

If it would have been my wedding, I'd have obeyed them to do burnouts :P
