Exotics in the Outback - 234pics!! (new vids added)
 

What an awesome trip it was for me – the memories will last a lifetime.

There is too much that happened to write about, so I will just mention some of the highlights for me (if you want to know more, just ask).

1. My chance to drive the CS – mindblowing!! I thought the owner was joking but was amazed when he tossed me the keys on Sunday morning. I drove the thing for about 100km to the Olgas and back, with my top speed a paltry 170kmh (in a 110 zone though :P ). I don't have any pics of the drive, but some video which I will treasure forever. :D

I sure got some funny looks getting into and out of the car, but it was a great feeling driving such a sexy car around. The acceleration was phenominal, though I didn’t get to test the handling much as I mainly drove on straight roads.

2. Overtaking a cop car at 220kmh in the GT2…..and they couldn’t do a thing about it. :P

3. Me and one of the other passengers waiting outside our relatively cheap hotel in the morning anh having 8 exotics roll up in convoy to pick us up.

4. The insane speeds that we managed to achieve, and all with nothing to worry about. (although we did manage 289kmh in a 110 zone at one stage :oops: ) The GT2 was the ‘winner’ with a top run of 332kph, then the CS with 308kph, Murci 300kph, Gallardo at 298kph and then the rest in the 280-290kph range. :wink:

5. The mini drag races that took place near the Cannonball Run memorial – nice stretch of road to compare acceleration. We had the GT2 and Murcielago facing off, CS v F360, CS v Monaro, Monaro v Boxster…..all captured on video of course. :D

6. Driving along at about 120kmh and having 4 cows run across the road infront of us. :shock: I was in the CS at the time and we had to slam on the brakes to miss them - at least they worked! :D The Monaro in front of us had to swerve to avoid them......got the heart racing. :D

Time for the pics, we didn’t stop for probably half as many photo opportunities as we could have – but still came up with some nice ones I think. Also not morning or evening footage as we simply didn't find time, but thats something for next year I suppose. :wink:

How fitting are these plates? :twisted:

Just a couple of speedo shots taken by others.....the first is about 300kph in the Murci, then the 330kph in the GT2 and 308kph in the CS :wink:

FRIDAY

One of the trucks being unloaded.....the sound of the beasts in there was awesome. :D

Then straight for the unlimited roads - I started in the Murcielago and have to admit the acceleration was scary at first. :oops:

Whenever you saw a car in the middle of the road it meant we were on a high-speed run.....here in the CS:

The leftovers of a bird on the GT2.....

http://img362.exs.cx/img362/8323/ali...05822we.th.jpg

The cars in their beds for the night - at the home of the Murci owner. :wink:

SATURDAY

At the petrol station in the morning, we were quite an attraction for the locals. :D The attendant there actually gave us 4c off per litre of petrol since he was so excited. :P

At a scenic Gorge, it was full of tourists (Germans) so hard to get shots without them getting in the way. :x

The Cannonball Run memorial (where 4 guys died in an F40 crash) - also the location of our drag races. :D

SUNDAY

On Sunday morning we headed to the Olgas and Ayers Rock - part of which was where I drove. :wink:

The CS sitting on the side of the road, waiting for the others to catch up. After this stop I got in and drove it to the petrol station.....ahh the memories. :D

a couple of us returned to climb Ayers Rock.....what a way to rock up (pardon the pun :P ).

a few more from the road, and man did that CS sound great when overtaking us. :D

Cruising at 220 in the Gallardo, and then up to 260...

the GT2 cooling down after its 330kph run

http://img362.exs.cx/img362/2429/ali...53926um.th.jpg http://img362.exs.cx/img362/9268/ali...53950ev.th.jpg http://img362.exs.cx/img362/3054/ali...53964wy.th.jpg http://img362.exs.cx/img362/2046/ali...53977kj.th.jpg

That night while waiting to get picked up I had the GT2 outside the house for myself, and the only real chance for night shots. :D

MONDAY

What a thrill this was - overtaking a huge road train in the CS! We were in an 80 zone, but got well over that (280 on the speedo at this stage). :D

http://img362.exs.cx/img362/5043/ali...54175la.th.jpg http://img362.exs.cx/img362/8059/ali...54191cg.th.jpg

Then a side-by-side race with the Murci at around 270kph....unbelievable! We kept up for a bit but then the big V12 just pulled away from us....

Some more moving shots.....I put my head on the line for the pics out the window. :D I really like the shot looking over the GT2's big ass at the Gallardo following it...

We then headed to Glen Helen and hired a helicopter, so we could get video and photos from the air as the cars raced down the highway. :D It was absolutely brilliant up there and watching those cars fly down below. The thing is that MOTOR were not present for this and have said they may use some of my pics from that flight in the magazine. Therefore I will not post them yet just incase, don't want to piss them off. :wink:

and the Murcielago back at home after its final run.....sad moment. :P

Hope you enjoyed all the photos......there could have been alot more but its hard to think about them when your having so much fun. :D

Woow Great picture's :D :D
I Realy love the 360 CS! :D

Do you have video's? because I see al lot of camera's on the cars.. :D

First reaction - :faint: :drool: :faint: :drool: :faint: :drool: :faint: :drool: :faint: :drool:

Yes, plenty of video (incar at high speed, the drag races, drive-by's, 0-200kmh sprints, from the helicopter, mounted on the 360 with others overtaking....). However there is plans to make a DVD of all the footage so for now I can't 'release' it on the net (plus the fact my tapes are in Adelaide atm). :wink:

Okay, I'm wet :drool:

I was just about to start a topic for my paris trip (quite shitty honnestly) and then I saw this thread ... I think I'm gonna keep them in the queue now :lol:

Now I have to find time to save all those great pictures :D

Excellent, the anticipation for these pics has been killing me! Imageshack seems to be getting absolutely hammered; can't wait to download them all! :D
Some of these are really high quality, professional pics - you could charge quite a price mate. Thanks again *resumes saving to hd. :fadein:

fecking A .....
the pics are loading ...
soo i'll edit thislater .. hehe .... :mrgreen:

some amazing pictures there!!! thanks a lot!
i just love the 360 cs

WooHoo High res pics :D Its going to take forever to save them all!!!

Is there any reason the Murcie owner only took it too 300km'h? (well he isnt doing his plates justice)

Wow my friend took me for a run in his 360 Spider afew weeks back and never gave me the keys!!!! hahaha u are very lucky :D

Damn it the Monaro missed the cows :P

Did anyone have issues with fuel, running low etc or someone brought along spare? Or the petrol stations spaced out well?

Dingo, can you please zip them and put on rapidshare? Jw crue is hammering imageshack again :D Thanx :P

amazing dude!!! thank you so much for the write up and pics!

Many will be desktop material for sure.

Imageshacks is being hammered at the moment, so i;ll wait till thats over. Bu some incredible pics of incredible cars dude! Well done!

Haha......"only" 300kmh is a bit ironic. :P He may of got a bit higher but I can't recall it, he does have 316kmh as his max speed on the speedo readout (from another time). :wink:

I know!!! I am still pinching myself that I actually drove a Challenge Stradale - a car of which only 13 exist in all of Australia! :shock:

Not really, a couple of fairly close calls in the 360 Spider and GT2 but no major dramas. THe stations are pretty well spaced, and we usually planned ahead (although 98 premium wasn't available all of the time). :wink:

That is just insane!!!

And imagine, if let's say a year ago somebody would tell you what you would be doing in the early days of august.........you would never belived them.

I'm really glad everything turned out so good.

The 360CS expirience......OMFG!!! Crazy!!!

I'll look at the pics tonight or tomorrow, because this page has been opening itself for about 5 minutes and it still says 180 items remaining!

I just CAN'T wait to see them all.

You'll remember this for the rest of your life and let's hope you'll be back with similar pics next year :twisted:

I am in the process of uploading the ZIP files of the pics to rapidshare, and will post the links ASAP. :wink:

Definately, and there are plans for a similar event next year. :wink: A couple of the guys who came have orders in for F430's so maybe I will be riding (or even driving) one of those beauties 12 months from now. :D

Next year!!!! Where do I sign up :D

Thank you, Thank you!!!!!!!



Im with him for sure man!! with enough notice i can avoid Uni/Work and come to this also!

I uploaded the first file but it didn't work for some reason.....so you'll have to wait a bit longer as I try again. :bah:


Guys, as you can imagine every person I have told has said they want to come along if it happens again. Also, there are limited seats as most cars are only 2-seaters.....and owners and their friends get first preference. :wink:

We'll see what happens......

Bloody hell.... ;)

Dude!!! That is sweet! :D 8) :P

Luuucky, and thanks for all the pics. 8) I think imageshack might die. :twisted:

How did the Porsche GT2 sound? ;)

Good boy! Tiem to save all the pics now!! I was so excited about a new passenger ride I managed for tomorrow (around 200 km in a 550 to go to a Ferrari meeting), but now, reading you DROVE the CS, I am kinda on my ass, drooling and trying to recover!

Will comment the pics later since they are loading slow now

LOL about your ride in the 550............I had a similar thing happen to me three days ago.

Got to ride in the DB9, but after reading dingo's words I kinda just went numb..... :wink:

WOW! :shock: Amazing Pictures! Must have been some incredible days!

dam looks like a aswome time...where are those videos you were talking about :D

Looks like an awesome trip for you, great-looking-all-worth-saving pictures for us dingo. The O&A Rock lineup pics are especially great. Looks like you need to walk pretty far back :lol: :lol:

It took awhile for those pictures to load and save, but it was well worth it. That is really some stunning photography dingo!!! Absolutely beautiful.

:shock: :shock: :shock:

:cough: jealous :cough:

:drool: :drool: :drool:

lucky boy!!! congrats for your ride!!! looking forward to d/l the zip file and the vid later :D THANK YOU :!:

Best post EVER :clap: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :faint: Do you mind if i post these on another forum? I will give credit to you for pics and the write up :D

^^^^^ Precisely for the credit it would be preferable these awesome pix remains at ™Jabbasworld™ IMO. :wink:

It's a chance for me Dingo that you are a Porsche fan's because you took several pictures of my favorite Porsche of all time the mighty 996 GT2. :twisted:

I want to say to you that your pictures are splendid and your trip report is very interesting...all this contribute to make a fantastic thread for JW. http://www.rs6.com/smilies/thumbsup.gif

Thanks Dingo !

Seems like you had the time of your life ... congrats !!! me is jealous :oops:

Especially the MkI 8)
I finally saved them all, some great wallpapers for the next weeks, thx :D

To be more precise I like enormously both generations of GT2. I'm impatient to see the next 997 GT2. :D

Dude! sweet pics thanks for sharing. I'd hate to see one of those cars hit a roo... bye bye car... the roo would probbaly hop away. Tough bastards. :mrgreen: :lol:

:shock: :arrow: :|

Fantastic ! You made good job with pics... And had a really nice trip, happy for you man !

Thanks for sharing, keep up the good work.

8)

wow! i am so jealous you got to drive the CS i havnt even seen one :cry: . seemed like a fun trip you lucky bastard!

Thankyou all for the compliments... :D

I tried uploading the RAR file again last night, and it failed for some reason. :( What am I doing wrong (they are 46MB and 37MB .rar files). :?

Well compared to the Lambo's and Ferrari's I don't think it was anything special, not 'sharp' or brutal enough for my liking. However the push in the back it gives you above about 4000rpm is probably unmatchable by most cars on the planet. :shock:

Haha, it must have been fate - I missed out on the 550 on this trip so you got it instead. :wink:

I already got a PM from somebody else asking the same thing - and the answer was yes. :wink: As long as the pics stay original (i.e. not edited in anyway) then there is no problem with it.....

Yes I am definately a Porsche fan, although they still sit behind Ferrari's and Lambo's in terms of desirability for me. :wink: There are apparently only 30 GT2's in Australia so I had to take the opportunity to snap some pics of it. :D

:clap: :good: :faint: :shocked!: :drool: http://img227.exs.cx/img227/9076/headbanging4yd.gif

Fucking beautiful shots Dingo :D I can only imagine how much fun that would have been :D

can't wait for that DVD (if it becomes availible) It's about the only way i'll ever know what it must be like driving in all those cars :lol:

You guys will have to make do with the thumbnails (for now at least)....because thats 3 times rapidshare has failed and I don't have time to waste another hour. :(

It should have some spectacular footage, though it may be awhile since all our tapes (4 of us have video) need to be combined onto a DVD and then edited. :wink:

Absolutely awesome. Thanks a heap for sharing the experience sounded like more fun than the body could handle 8)

Respect to the GT2 for outrunning a Murcielago - thats a feat. How did the NSX and Monaro fair? Hope they got walloped :D

Thanks again champ, great photography!

Well the GT2 didn't really outrun the Murcielago - its just the driver pushed it further at the top end. :wink: They did have a drag race and it was neck-and-neck until they had to back off.....

Absolutely brilliant pics there mate! The Ayers rock bunch is my fave with the shiny cars with the red rock as the background!!!!

Great job! :smilecolros:

Bloody amazine line up of cars... :o

Fantastic photos too...MOTOR was there? as in magazine MOTOR! i cant wait till next months edition... :P

Thanks for all the great pics, make some great wallpapers... 8)

Yes MOTOR the magazine - they were in the Monaro (that explains all the burnouts :P ).

They told us to expect it to feature (8-10 pages) in a couple of months - the Sept. issue just came out so maybe we will be in the November issue. :wink:

and how is it going with uploading???? :? :D

3 tries and 3 failures.....any ideas why? It uploads the complete file but then instead of going to a page with the links it comes up with "cannot display this page". :?

and how about to send those files by icq to someone else to try it?

I mean, I can do it for ya :wink:

I will try it once more with another online hosting place, but if that doesn't work we'll do it through MSN - although that is usually very slow for me. :bah:

Hey Dingo...... this is absolutely mindblowing! It's really great that you had to join an event like this. i think this is a once in a lifetime thing. but you're now in and maybe you'll have the chance to join this next year to.

thx for sharing the pics. you made some really very good shots, most of them can be used for wallpapers - exellenct work dude!!!!

i look forward to see and hear :D the cars

ok. try it and let me know :wink: ... but I've got just 3 hours left today - then I'm going to work. or you can try ARMAN in the evening (European time) :wink:

Thanks for the offer - but its working now with sendmefile.com :wink:

Here are the Friday pictures - http://www.sendmefile.com/00044785
