    Great weather, great race, amazing cars. Who all went to this event? I saw tvrfreak's TVR, and bobafett's 550.
    By the way dan, what happened to your 550?

    Any one get any pictures? I got a few.

    Cool pics Wankel! I couldn't go, but I did watch the GT race on TV. Thanks for sharing!

    (And yea ... what happened to the black (Dan's I take it) 550?)

    Thanks Nizam, and your very welcome! Too bad you couldn't go.

    I wasn't at the right place to see exactly what happened to the #4 C5R, do you have any idea since you watched it on TV what exactly happened?

    Cock

    Looked like he was overtaking lap traffic after turn one and there was some contact which got him into the wall. Front end damage, loss of hood.

    Car photos are on 35mm. This was the 'backup' camera.

    Say, here's a backup right here. (Miss Pirelli was the highlight of the day, super swweet super hot gal.)

    Dan- the blonde had a better attitude, besides, the 750 was full (Turns out Miss Pirelli has some amazing friends!) Pitty we all split up just after the race then, no? ;)

    My heart goes out for Dan's 550 but I am sure it'll be fixed and ready to go on time for the next Rally event. Here's a picture a friend took. Anybody take a picture of them Prada girls?

    Ben: not so much a pity for you, eh? :D Let's leave it at that! :)

    Matt: grazie. Should be ok. Like a trooper, I still came to the races! Now I have to deal with insurance, etc. PITA (pain in the ass).

    Hmm, maybe a rubber mallet and some welding and I can still take it to colorado, huh?

    No pictures, but I did chat to the Prada girls for a bit. They were nice. Pirelli woman was absolutely ravishing.

    Faisal - May be I post the picture I posed with them. They were with a couple of professional photographers and took my picture. It will be ready in a couple of days after they post it on their site.

    A fantastic day indeed! What fun it was!
    Thanks to the nice owners of the silver 360 Modena and Black Testarossa who let me sit in their stunning FCars, and the Ferrari salesman who let me sit in his amazing Gallardo!
    TVRfreak- your Cerbera looked great!

    It's my buddy's Nikon digital SLR. I was impressed with the quality too. Glad you like'em.
