Supercar Rally 2003, pics (60+) and VIDEO FINALLY!!!
 
Edit - OPS my site is down, I have to move the pics because they're not wroking damn...

With some words too ;) well, I arrived at the "Parc des Eaux Vives" with my g/f at around 2.30 pm.. I knew the cars where there from 10 am to 4 pm.. but it was a little different: not all the cars where there from the beginning, and the many arrived just minutes before the start at 6 pm..
And BTW, the list posted by st-anger in the other topic was sadly a fake.. just to tell us with cars are eligible for the race I guess

Before the cars, again a little intro ;)

The famous "jet d'eau" in Geneva: it's something really impressive: 140 meters high (466 feet). The water at the starting point has a speed of 200 km/h (124.. mph). You really have to see it from real

The "Parc des Eaux Vives", where the meeting was held.. very nice place!

Ad also the double diesel engined Hoggart.. with a stupid bird keeping waling on it LOL

http://www.kscreations.net/temp/P1010069shoggart.jpg

And now, the loudest car I ever heard in my life! This was something crazy, I heard it from very very far away while I was down in the park eating a sandwich.. had to run up the hill (again) and found it parking and I can assure you the sound was something you can't forget! To bad the owner was just there to say hello to some friends and didn't entered the competition

Imre 09-26-2003 11:20 AM

Sweet pics.IS the yellow f40 overpainted?

SFDMALEX 09-26-2003 11:25 AM

Thanks TT. Great pics. Had fun? :lol: What did you g/f think?

gis 09-26-2003 11:30 AM

sweet pics.looks like it was one hell of an experience.

thanks for sharing the pics with us all dude

stradale 09-26-2003 11:30 AM

Great stuff TT!

You sure had a good day yesterday. The only cars missing were the Enzo and the Murciélago. Other than that, you can't be disappointed. Two Zondas, a McLaren, Gallardo, Ferrari 575, 550 barchetta, 360, F40, F50, Diablo GT, Vanquish. Man, that's one hell of a line-up! The Spades and Hearts are great too.

The Vanquish looks stunning in that dark colour. Why are they usually grey anyway?

Thanks for the pictures!

TT 09-26-2003 11:51 AM

Ok so.. my g/f was bored after some hours LOL!

No idea about the F40 :-/

As for the Murcielago, there was a black one, arrived to late for me to take a pic. Same goes for a 360 Challenge Stradale.. but both are in my short video :)

And BTW, the video will be available next month (nothing special and only 6 min long).. so stay tuned if you want to hear the scream of a Challenge Stradale or a M3 CSL ;) (and so on)
