Well I will be by my parents. So I will surf but won't save pics.. no idea exactly when I will be there. Do you plan to already do the editing in the evening after the day's action so you will post right away when you will be back?

I'm not sure yet, it really depends if I have any spare time at night. The owners are interested in going to the casino and the different bars/restaurants so it could be that I won't have time - and need to do it all once back home.
Oh well even if you aren't here you'll get to save the pics eventually anyway...

Shit news today - the 550M that I had planned to have a ride in needs a clutch replacement so won't be coming anymore!
That obviously leaves me with a bit of a problem, so I am busily trying to confirm a seat in another of the cars.....fingers crossed.
Here is what is left of the starters.....dropping like flys.
· Lamborghini Murcielago
· Lamborghini Gallardo
· Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale
· Ferrari 360 Spider
· Porsche 996 GT2
· Porsche 996 Turbo
· Lotus Esprit S4
· Honda NSX
· Porsche Boxster
· Mitsubishi Evo IX (with the mag)
still a mouthwatering list (for me), so it should be a blast even with a few non-starters.

Anytime when there are two Lambos, two Ferraris and two Porsches all in the same place there is plenty to be happy about, I'm sure you'll still have the time of your life.

Too bad about 550. But it still is an thrilling list. I'll have my fingers crossed for you (and maybe pray the petrol headed lord) so no more entries will drop and you will have the time of your life

Ok after a night of chasing around the owners trying to organise a replacement ride I've got confirmation from scud that a seat in either the CS or GT2 is still free.
So its all go again, and in about 24hrs I'll be off!!

I have a curse on me , anything I ever plan has something go wrong - and this whole trip was going too smoothly so I knew something had to happen. :x
Oh and one of the guys will be bringing a G-Tech meter which measures 0-100kmh and 1/4 mile times etc so there might be a little competition out there.

Bad luck about the 550, I was getting scared for you once gekko said there was no room in his car for you. But the CS or GT2 will rock!
Can't wait for the 750 pictures . Should be a fun day saving/admiring them all 8) .
