    Hi everybody,

    I just uploaded my report about the first day of the Modena Track Days. There was a lot of rain (it was at the Nürburgring after all) but the cars were AWESOME. This event was really extraordinary. Hopefully, the second day was sunny and will come soon.

    Lot more slides here:

    Enjoy guys!

    Staggering assembly of autos there....

    Did they go out at all on the Nordschleife?
    Any more photo/info on the racing 308s by chance?

    À la vôtre!

    No Nordschleife, just the F1 track. The best pictures are on the site, the other ones, if they exist, are not as good.

    Well, Alesi, Marlboro, Fiat... what could it be. But no, I'm not sure as there is no cavallino on it. Here is a good quizz for F1 nuts :)

    I would be very surprised if this car was really a F-93A but I'm not really an expert in modern F1...

    Who can help ??

    Yes indeed.

    There was also something wrong with the 126 C2 that was present. For starters, the carbon fibre rear wing...

    It looks like that black F40 got poked in the eye a little bit....

    Modena TD day 2, Ralph Lauren, Spa 24 Hours for the next reports. And I hope another shooting with the 599 GTO.
    I have to calm down because my wife is looking at me strangely lately when I speak of september O_O'
