Drive to HMB 08-11-07

Prancing Horse,

Thanks for putting on a great Milk Run and setting us up for lunch at HMB Ritz! It was great seeing all the cars fly by through the view finders of both cameras -- we got tons of great drive-bys! Sean is hard at work, as I write, putting the DVD together for distribution to your group. Have a great weekend.

Check 6.

We knew you guys were up to something.

Looks like a good drive

 

Good one, Prancing Horse.

Using the video camera setup is really going to make a difference in conveying the speed of the exotics on film. Sean mentioned that in film, the cars lose about 30% of their speed, so they look a bit slower on film. Hopefully, this setup will make-up that loss.

Sean: You and your Trooper are famous in FerrariChat! ;-)

 

Kirby,

Great pix. Most of all, it was great to have finally met you. We've PMd each other, so it's great to put a face to the PMs. Good luck on your shoot tomorrow, 12-August-07. Tell, Jessette, one of your models I said, "hello."

Nice pics, Prancing Horse.

My favorites are the last one, and the one of the Porsche GT angled off your 6 o'clock -- groovy!

 

You guys are relentless, haha... Love the red interior on the F430 Spider and the CGT is sexy too. One day I'll have grown up toys and Saturdays off too.

 

Your Lotus Elise is a grown up toy. ;-) It gets lots of compliments from walker-bys.

 

shoot...big turnout. That is a great pic with the fog kirby.

 

that red cgt is so hot!!!!

 

Hey guys. I'll have pics up soon. I just woke up. Sooo tired after that drive. I slept from 4 until now. Here's quick pic of Kirby's new Gallardo. ;-)



Edit: wth, stupid site downsampled the quality of the jpg. arg. I'll host the rest of the pics on my own site...

That was a lot of fun. I crashed after I got back home too.

We passed by Luis' memorial on the way. Tried to pull over but there just was not place for that many cars to stop. The flag is no longer there (that happened a while ago) but there were still flowers and other things at the site. RIP Luis, we miss you buddy.

 

wish i could have made the drive and the lunch.

 

+1...

A couple more...there's just too much camera shake inside a car when you're going freeway speeds.
