Default Trackday - Murcielago (2), 575, F430, 360, Masers....

Another invite-only trackday took place last week, its really great as only about 40 people attend and you have access to everywhere. I was standing on the pit straight (behind the wall) with these beasts flying past 1m away....the SOUND!!!!!!

I got taken for a few laps in the fibreglass 308 (light blue one) and was amazed! The mixture of slicks, upgraded brakes/suspension and an experienced driver made for some stunning lap times. :shock: Truly gave me an appreciation for these older Ferraris.

You know alot of the cars already (so I hope you aren't getting bored) but a few news ones (Murci and 575) should keep you happy.

All 48 high-res pics can be viewed on my website :arrow: www.ozcarsightings.com

A new Murcielago for me, the owner has 11 cars in total. :shock: This one already has 20,000km on the clock, good to see.


F430, with the 308 I was in following.....


575 HGTC....


Murcie 40th Ann, good to see he also tracks this beast. He also brought along his GT2 that you can see in a couple of pics.


This is what happens when you don't turn onto the main straight...


Believe it or not this car is owned by an 80yo WOMAN....I was in awe.



All 48 high-res pics can be viewed on my website :arrow: www.ozcarsightings.com

High quality pics as usual. The picture of the Murciélago with slicks is brutal. I love it!

I was thinking the same as komotar, the pic with the maseratti in the sand is cool in a way

I like the dudes new lambo, and the 575 looks cool too.

Overall nice pics Dingo, oh and thanks for the M3 cab pic

you realise there are two Murcielagos in my pics, and one is definately a 40th Anniversary (#25).
