Ferrari Dream Days: 250 GTO, 288 GTO, F40, CS... 147 pics
 
Well, I am finally done, it was one of the best meetings of the year for me and the fact I was there as a passenger helped a lot since it gave me a VIP pass to access the parking.. "normal" ppl wasn't allowed in and it would have sucked big balls to discover it after 100 km.

There are pics taken in the parking lot (some in the morning :arrow: water on the cars, some later in the afternoon), others taken in the village while the owners were giving ppl passenger ride (20 CHF to be paid, all the money used for charity) and the ones taken on the gravel were taken during the morning rally at one of the checkpoints

Enjoy!!

Nice pics TT! As always! :D It's a pity that there were no meetings in Switzerland when I came two weeks ago... :?

That 288GTO is heavenly......perfect! :drool:

I'm not a fan of the CS with the sunroof (or whatever its meant to be), the others ones there are much better - they just need the stripe. :wink:

Did you pay for any passenger rides?

Also, I noticed alot of blurred people in the background - were you using a slow shutter speed/tripod for these pics?

Great pics from a great event....thanks TT. :D

TT 08-17-2005 07:24 AM

Afaik indeed there are no other CS with opening roof and notice also the "swiss" stripe ;)
IMO it rocked and although the other 3 were more conventional, they are all looking the same after a while, with or without the stripe.. 90% of the time red too.. so this is a nice change IMO and the exhaust was fucking loud (a couple of vids added in the first post), so the sunroof can let you appreciate the soundtrack even better :D

No I didn't pay for any passenger rides, you couldn't chose the car or else of course I would have paid for the 288 or that CS, but to pay and to risk to be in a 308 or 328 instead of GTO or CS could have been too much :D
And there were too many ppl waiting in line too. So I preferred to take more pics since I already got my ride for that day anyway :D
As for the blurred pics, yes, all the pics taken in the morning where with the tripod and shutter speed around 1 second (F8.0), there was not enough light, it was 10 am but cloudy and in a valley, so I considered myself very clever for having brought the tripod with me :D

Some stunning pics. The black 288 GTO looks gorgeous, as does the Dino and Daytona. The pics with the mountains in the background are just so beautiful! Must have been a superb meeting. And it must have been a relief that you could take pics without people constantly running in front of the camera!

TT 08-17-2005 04:22 PM

Yeah it was a pleasantfull surprise! The ppl outside the barrier was really a big croud and I can't imagine all of them crawling around the cars. There were still too many ppl and behind the cars there is always somebody but well, I can't really complain :D

Well, it's good thing to see that the money deposited in those banks is being put to good use....
Very nice pics TT, ure photography skills get better and better...My favourites were the beautiful GTO series 2, and the 288....But i have yet to take the lerge, detailed look...

stmoritzer 08-18-2005 05:05 AM

So, had a closer look at the pics (as well as to the Aarberg ones)

Lucky you that the "normal" crowd wasn't allowed to disturb your photoshooting :wink:
The CS is hot, but some other with more background are very nice too

The black 288GTO is stunning, I doubt having seen one in real life.

komotar 08-18-2005 05:58 AM

great set of pics TT 8) 8) 8)

The black GTO is :drool:

Also a bunch of other gorgeous looking cars!!!

It's interesting how I have by now probably seen hundreds if not thousands pics of various CS's and they still make my heart go nuts....

well, I guess same goes for every Ferrari.

Thx for the Maser and the combo shots 8)
