Bugger if i'd have known that was going on I'd have gone for a look. Was it just on today??

Martin - What lens were you using for the action shots??

Hi there,

Attended the Media Day for the 2008 British GT series today.

This year there are two classes GT3 and the new GT4.
GT3 will consist of Ferrari F430's, Lamborghini Gallardos and a few others, with GT4 teams running cars like Aston Martin N24's and Ginetta G50's.



Team Modena will be running their Gallardo again this year and after a good development season in 2007 their car should be running near the front in 2008.













A new team for 2008 is CRS Scuderia, they will run 2 Ferrari F430 GT3's and many of the team members are ex Scuderia Ecosse that won the title in 2006.









Adam Wilcox returns for 2008 in his F430 that ran well in 2007





A new entry for the GT4 series is Moore Racing and their Maserati. This car looked great and it will be great to see this taking on the Aston Martin N24's





A few more random shots of some of the other cars











Hope you like the pictures.

Regards

Tim

Johnny,I expect come the first round, all the cars will have PH stickers on them as they're one of the 'media partners' of BGT.

Great pictures Martin and Tim.

Heres some from me..

[Piers_K]

These were having a play too..

Excuse the quality.. they were taken at high ISO.. over a big distance and are heavily cropped..

[badgerbaiter]

i was feeling a bit left out so i thought i better join in (i'm sure Gareth will be along soon too)


1) Ferrari Braking


2) Viper Flaming (spent an hour trying to get this right, and this blurry one was the best i managed to get)


3) Trimite Viper


4) Another Viper


5) Ferrari


6)And Another!

Looking at these web versions, they look a bit soft and over saturated. I better check my export settings.
Time to stop using quite so many angles too methinks!

[Luca Brazzi]

My efforts on Team Modena's Lamborghini...stunning car, and amazing sounds on the downshift.
