5 Stars Event: Spyker, Maserati, Novitec, Wiesemann, Ford GT

[TT]

One of the last events of the season for me I fear, and it was quite an empty one this time...
This one was a private event meant to let some car fanatics / supercar owners to get together and be able to test some new cars presented by dealers and such. The promised lineup untill the very last moment was amazing, wih 599, LP640, 997 GT3 and more new sensations... sadly as always, to organize such things is a real nightmare, and something went wrong here and there. It was also the first time this guy was putting this together for his friends/customers, so we can understand.
Still, despite the lot of new cars not coming, thanks to our local Speedy garage and Sportec, it was still a very enjoyable day. The whole Maserati lineup, two Spykers, a Wiesemann, a Ford GT, couple of Novitec Rosso and the Cayenne and Cayman Sportec were plenty enough, especially in such conditions, with basically nobody around, plenty of space and so on. Sadly it was a very bad day, with no light almost (forget to shoot in any other mode than M.. like Darkel with the Raid some time ago...).

Here are some previews. As always, click them to find the full high-res update, 93 pics

Hehe, I had plenty of them back at school.. probably more than the rest of my class together, but well, to be honest I will need much more than a couple of supercars maybe passing by on an highway to fake a big flu now ;)

It would have been possible to have rides in any car actually, but timing was tight and I had to choose between pics or rides...
