7-15 Houston - SLR, Murci, Panoz, CGT etc etc
 
Actually the list was so long and the day so long and so many photos, I fugured the "Behind the scenes" shots would be more interesting.. :P

Nice flag ;)

Yeah - watermarks are such a personal thing - as long as you are happy with the presentaiton of yor image - thats all that really matters :)

BTW, I am off to MSR at 8am in the morning.. pity you couldn't make it too - this would be a great "action shot" practice opportunity ;)

Nice Murci shot! And the mug of the guy at the wheel looks someway familiar, doesn't it? Actually looks like you LOL and in that case, how could you possibly have taken the pic yourself?!

oscargarza88 07-16-2006 10:53 AM

Murcie roadster looks great. And lucky you - driving the beast 8)

Nice "behind-the-scenes" idea :good:

But where is the CGT? :P

jorge 07-16-2006 11:09 AM

That Panoz looks very nice, but the Murcielago shot is amazing. :o

Pehtren 07-16-2006 01:17 PM

Hehe RC nice one, i like the RED murcie it looks really special :wink:

Panoz Esperante LM Jan Magnusson spec - has a 4.2l supercharged engine with 420bhp and lots of CF all over the car. Costs $130,000. :shock:

Well - besides the fact I would need to donate everyone's kidney as well as trade the Z to get it - It's looks cool.. but I just wonder how much fun it really is...
Afterall once you're behind the wheel, and you have 600 or 700 HP then all freeway roll ons are the same.. and after you have taken the car to the fancy hotel and restaurant valet a few times.. the novelty I am sure wears off..

But now something like this might interest me

but at the moment I am able to have just as much fun.. ;)

The big Murci just felt .. big? and dare I say clumsy?

sameerrao 07-17-2006 12:28 PM

^^ Try it out on the road and it might be shrink around you.

All cars with flappy paddles make manouvring cars around the parking lot a tedious experience. Plus the sheer width of the car and the mega dollar price adds to the problem. :D

Hmm, not sure about that Panoz, maybe you get used to having the tach & speedo in the middle like that...?
