Default Lamborghini club Switzerland meeting: 2nd Day

After i heard about this event i've decided to go there. Sadly i couldn't be there saturday. But i met them Sunday. Here is the story and the pics.

At sunday they started in Saanen and drove to Gruyère. So i decided to drive to Saanen and follow the convoy. To catch up with them i had to drive through the whole country.

When i left at home at 06.30 the weather wasn't very good and i thought about making a u-turn.



But after 1.5 hours of driving the wheater was getting better and i could see the sun. so i continued my journey.



Finally i arrived in Saanen exactly when the lambo convoy left the hotel where they've spent the night.
the only problem was i had no fuel left. so i drove to the next gaz station to get some fuel. when i left the gaz station i saw two countach's driving in my direction. so i followed them, or i tried to follow them. at half of the way i've lost them, i couldn't keep up with them. my car isn't a slow one but they needn't not as much space as i did to pass other cars on the road. and they've driven their cars very roughly....!!! i'm happy that there was no radar control on our way. i think would have lost my license at every time on the way between Saanen and Gruyère. And the Lambo guys too!


Finally i arrived at gruyere where they parked their cars. they visited the very scenic village of gruyère and i've made pics of the cars. i was absolutely impressed about what i've seen there. Sadly there was no Murcielago but the range of lambos i saw was awesome. Enjoy the second part of the meeting:















































































And finally on my way home i had a little race with this 993 turbo. fur sure i had no chance at all, the acceleration of the porsche is absolutely great!

WOW you saw a 365BB on the highway with rain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RARE!!!! AG plates?

As for the Gruyère pics, thanks! You were maybe there at the same moment as Shin.. did you see an SLK55 somewhere?

It's sad to see many cars didn't come :bah: sadly the owners in the German part don't like to drive long distances, that's probably why many of them just went back home Saturday evening or Sunday morning.. still impressive lineup and thanks for the pics!

yeah, it had AG plates. it was very difficult to make a pic of it. and exactly when i put the trigger the damn windscreen wiper came up...

no, i didn't see the slk55...

yea, it's really sad that a lot of cars didn't show up sunday. but anyway it was worth to drive over and see and hear the rest of the lambos.

BTW, just to go a bit OT, are you aware there will be a Ferrari day in Lenzerheide July the 3rd? The cars will meet in Lugano and drive there the 2nd, and the 3rd there will be some "track" action (not sure exactly what kind of track, maybe on an airstrip).

I will be either in Lugano either in Lenzerheide, I didn't decide yet, but I thought I better let you know just in case.

Last year the Ferrari Day Ticino were pretty good, I think they got a couple of Enzo too

You must have left before 11:30, because that's when I turned up. You can see my car to the left behind the Lambo in this pic:


What time did you come, and what time did you leave? Musta been one tough journey to go half way through Switzerland early in the morning...

I also visited the castle, and left when the other Lambo owners did at around 2pm...

Nice pics!

Wow amazing to see rows of Lambo's filling a parking lot. Just amazing. Love the black Countach and the red Jalpa. Thanks for sharing the pics.

That's hell of a trip, thanks for the pics
Back into the OT, here's a much shorter way to an interesting location, it's too close not to go there this summer

It is a shame that not all of them made it to the Sunday event, but still a damn nice sight.

As I said in TT's thread, the orange SV is my favourite and now I get even more pics of it - thanks

Oh, nice to know. Sadly then is also the openair in st. gallen but i guess i have to leave earlier. Lenzerheide is not far away from St. Gallen.
Hmm, there is no airstrip at Lenzerheide, i'm wondering where they gonna make the action track. do you know where they gonna stay or the timetable?

Enzo's.... this is worth enough to go there

I arrived in Gruyère at 10.40 and left i guess at 11.50. I really cannot remember your Merc. It's really sad we didn't met!
