Default L'âge d'or 2006 : 3xGT40, Cobra, DP214, Atom ...

Again some different sightings, while everyone was drooling at the FXXs @ Spa

Those 3 GT40 are real ones, I could only find more informations about number 40 though :arrow: http://www.ajlracing.co.uk/cars.asp?Pick=1&Car=2
5 Cobras but only one or two aren't replicas : the CRS which is quite recent and maybe that red one with hardtop :bah:

The paddocks (first one is a Lola T70)












The racetrack, damn fence :/







The rest, mostly clubs.







And finally the parkings + on the road sightings; that orange 111R had diplomatic plates from the Portuguese embassy... in holland-style color and the match in the evening, such an irony

Dude! :shock: 8)

Really fantastic pics, I love the GT40s and Cobras! That must have been an awesome experience to see all those rare cars. Thanks for bringing us great pics!

My favorite I think is the red GT40...ooo

Brillant pics although most cars aren't that appealing to me

Still, the action shots rule :good:

Great shots, a New Ford GT all done up like the orignal like that GT40 came cruising down our little downtown at about 1am and revved. Everyone in the bar was cheering he he

What kind of car is this? Its sexy
