Default Trackday : 997 GT3, 355, M3, Veyron ... (+ old Bugattis)

Last sunday @ Anneau du rhin.
Rainy in the morning, nice conditions to practice panning shots

The Veyron is a factory car, it was driven by ... a factory pilot, so there was no real show, just a few (slow) laps to impress happy families with children :roll:















David vs Goliath or Driving school vs RAM SRT-10


Want some rice ?


As a bonus, pictures of the Bugatti Festival in Molsheim (where the Veyron is built), I was only there on sunday morning for the last gathering





I was already leaving when I saw that beautiful 512BB in the streets of Molsheim

Hi Darkel,

Some good images you have shot there mate! Looks to me it was an interesting trackday. Good fun.

The Veyron sure is an impressive car, clearly shown on your pics.

I like the Audi S6 as well, what a fast salon

Nice pannings of the the GT3's, great job


Cheers

Thanks Darkel for this very nice pictures set.

The Veyron is so amazing. :shock:

The 996 GT3 MKI and the 997 GT3 are superb.

And thanks mate for the Ur quattro and S6 V10 pictures. :good:

Nice pics dude and nice gathering. Too bad of course the Veyron was just sissied around the track :bah:

Usually I prefer pics with no sun risking to mess up some angles and indeed the ones took in the morning are really beautifull! I love that König!

And the BB catched in the street

Wanna use one of these pics for the contest or should I stick to the F40?

As everyone else has already said, the white GT3 kicks ass. 8) Those panning shots of the GT3 need to be in the panning thread!

I really like this shot for some reason, even though that jerk didn't move his arm out of the side of the pic. :fist:


Its nice to see some pictures of real Bugattis too...

Indeed, I played with the curves in order to get more contrast and compensate the grey weather. :bah:

I think I'll use one of the Veyron's, this one should make it :
