yet another fantastic ferrari pic...

I have no idea what race that is, but it is an AWESOME pic.

 

European Ferrari Challange?? Just awesome!!

 

The noses of all 3 cars say "Ferrari UK," so I'm inclined to think it's a Euro race. The shot does remind me of coming into Turn 1 at Watkins Glen (looking back up the front stretch from the runoff area), but the elevation is wrong in this scene.

 

Yea I was thinking that too, I'm willing to bet its practice judging by the red white red pattern, but who knows.

 

Thanks for posting!

 

Beautiful!!!
Thanks for the post..

 

Awesome! Hope a hi-res shows up in the near future!

 

Superb Pics, I don't think its Uk, although I would say the weather is typical british

 

Looks like Brands Hatch.............

 

Those are all 360 GT which dont compete in the Ferrari Challenge. The Ferrari Challenge is standard 360 street cars outfitted with safety parts for the track.

 

Obviously not Scotland though!

 

Looks more like a demonstration

 

Photo is from the UK. The photo is from an event in 2002 called the "Ferrari Festival" at Brands Hatch (from memory). The 360GT's (N-GT #11 and #15 and GT # 2010) were campaigned by team Veloqx in British GT and world FIA GT in 2002 and 2003. The team won the GTO class in British GT in 2002. The photo shows a very, very early team colour scheme.

I bought # 11 from Veloqx in late 2003. This is the car as it is today in Australia. Color scheme is as raced by Veloqx in British GT/FIA GT.

Yes, the picture if from Brands Hatch (My home track)... it's on the approach to Paddock Hill bend.... which is one of the most spectacular corners in the world... top 10 corner for sure.

Cars approach from the straight, and the pit exit pops any cars out right into the action there too, and then you hit a big bump just when you most need to stop, then you drop down and around to the right until you do a belly flop at the bottom of the corner exit.... a real gut wrencher. Then theres no time for recovery as the Druids hairpin comes up fast, and any half completed move will be settled here....

This corner is the scene of many famous incidents, and drivers making or breaking their bones/reputations.

I've driven dozens of Ferraris there, but only ever spun once... in a (hoight sputtt!!) Porsche (944 Turbo).
