Gorgeous pictures man, thanks a lot. I'd love to have seen the 330P4, it's one of my all-time favorite vehicles...just incredibly beautiful.

This one is quite stunning too
Actually, the overcast sky created some beautiful plays of light and shadows on the lines of a lot of these cars.

dingo22: Yes, its run every year, this is the 5th year. Have patience with the video, we (megahurts4 & I) are both very busy (I have exams this week) so it may be a few days before we get any work done on sorting through the raw video from the track day.

sikx5: Quite a pity...for many of the pictures I stood there waiting for a moment when no one was in the picture, but it was hard because a lot of people turned out.

mindgam3: No, only took one pic of that blue one...sorry.

I'm glad you all like that pics, I took a few more today at the drive through the French Quarter (it was another amazing day! 8)), but I have two exams tomorrow, so no time to upload them yet.

Look for another topic tomorrow night possibly!

Here's the directory on my server for two small clips. I really need to find a better codec, this one is poo. For the size of the video, I expected better visual quality, oh well, until I can find a good compressor, this is what you'll have to put up with

http://megahurts4.servebeer.com/fqc/

"burn" is probably what you are looking for .

*on a side note, my server is limited, so if somebody wouldn't mind hosting elsewhere, that'd be great. I can only upload at 48kb/s.

Ohhhhh...WOW,.... :shock:

Thanks a lot for letting us enjoy these beauties too! Too bad some of the cars are fitted with disgraceful wheels (2 F40s and a 288), but the incredible amount of gorgeous cars made up for that. And then some...

The 330 P4 and GT40 mk.IV are of the same owner if I'm correct. I love those and the 250 California spider just as well. Miuras are all breathtaking, but IMO the ex Shah of Persia Miura SV is the ultimate. It is so beautiful!

Dadiddilydam, that first pic is amazing. And those Murciolago's are the meanest cars i've ever seen(even though i don't think they've ever won). Thanks for posting them, these are great.

Two 288GTOs were at the track day, and 3 were at the Concorso (the one with aftermarket wheels didn't go to the track). Pretty amazing stuff, this last weekend!

Hey...what can I say...it was awesome! There was a CGT there too!

I'd say you are pretty lucky yourself.

wow that Enzo is from Montana? Montana is the best place to own a supercar because the speedlimits are unreadable and the police dont really care. but all those crosses are intimidating
