Monterey Weekend *AMAZING PICTURES!!!!! MUST SEE*
 
Alrite guys, here is the rundown, I have pictures of my weekend, Friday-Monday. Over 550+ Ferraris at concours d’ Italia, largest gathering EVER. Not to mention the other cars I took pics of. I also saw cars at Laguna Seca, and I attended the 360 Challenge Series where my friend and his dad competed. That is where the F50GT car was.

I am working on video, it is just going to be clips taken off of my Digital Camera, but what it is really all about is the sounds.

This weekend = greatest car event of my life. I went to a ton of auctions, saw the first ever public sale of an enzo, and hundreds of other one of cars. Sorry, I couldn’t take pictures for 96 hours straight ;)

I really hope you guys enjoy, I had JW in mind and that’s really the only reason I took so many pictures as well as video.

Also, I would really appreciate it if this got a sticky, there is so much here that I don’t want it getting pushed down :)

McLaren. This color is AMAZING in person. I want to paint everything this color. Also, look how far recessed the seats are. And contrary to popular belief, its really hard to see the gold lining in the engine bay.

The F50 GT car. Words cannot describe how I felt. This is the ORIGINAL CAR, chassis #1. It was crashed a few months ago at Infineon on lap #1 by a driver warming the car up for the owner. This was the first race back, and the owner, (an old man) was driving it. He took it SUPER easy around the course.

Friends dad racing. They are trying to get me into Challenge racing, I don’t have that kind of time though. Also, purchasing the car aside, its around $10k per race when you factor in expenses.

wow thanks! yea i agree, the f50 (gt or LM?) was awesome! thanks !

IgotWRXed 08-17-2004 10:47 PM

its a ferrari gt car, 1 of 3 with an F1 motor in it, among other mods.

budagboy2 08-17-2004 10:58 PM

Very nice, you know that f40 is fake right?

IgotWRXed 08-17-2004 11:00 PM

which one? the one in the parking lot? i wasnt aware

all the stuff on the inside was Ferrari club of america cars.

budagboy2 08-17-2004 11:01 PM

Yeah like the 4th pic down

IgotWRXed 08-17-2004 11:02 PM

why do you say that it is fake?

budagboy2 08-17-2004 11:03 PM

Ur joking right? Its the worst replica ive seen

IgotWRXed 08-17-2004 11:09 PM

sorry then i guess. when i go to a predominately ferrari event, and there are literally 15 ferraris parked in a row, i tend to believe what i see.

nthfinity 08-17-2004 11:12 PM

i cant wait to click on those and d/l em (morning, i think)

they look to be fantasmic!!!!
great photos!

T-Bird 08-17-2004 11:18 PM

some nice shit there and those aren't just some old Corvettes the second is the Mako Shark!

And so true that is a really crappy F40 replica there.
I mean if you saw that many F40's you should have noticed that car was a fake.
width, length, height, lights, wheels, doors, mirrors, shape of cabin roof line, antenna(I think)

Also some of the slowest damn loading I've seen from Imageshack.

IgotWRXed 08-17-2004 11:19 PM

that F40 was in the parking lot and was the first, i was going a little crazy so i wasnt paying attention, next to it was a GT3 and a GT40 was just parked next to our car. its pretty easy to sit and stare at a full color photo and go"thats fake!!" but in real life, at a ferrari event, you dont really do that.

i konw its the mako shark , there was another pic that didnt load that was another corvette.

budagboy2 08-17-2004 11:24 PM

wasn't staring at all, was just scrolling down and i could tell right away. I was at the concourse and saw a fake call spider and i could tell right away, i dent want this to turn into a big argument, i was just letting you know that the f40 was fake

sameerrao 08-17-2004 11:27 PM

Yep it is fake .... but dont worry about it. Nice pics...
