Hi there,

WOW !!! What can I say, the FIA GT series is go for 2008.

Today was the turn of the GT3 and GT4 cars to head out on track, took my new camera and got loads of pics, still working through them but thought I would share a few.

I am back at the track tomorrow for the GT1 and GT2 practice sessions can't wait to see the big boys out on track.

Morgan Aero 8 - these sound phenomenal





Quite a few F430's out today







Aston Martin DBRS9's six of these running in total







Ascari's making a welcome return for 2008





Porsche 911 - new GT3 Cup S for 2008





Ford Mustang's and also Ford GT's will race again in the 2008 series





Jaguar XKR GT3





Lamborghini Gallardos inc two from Tech9







Dodge Viper



Finally one from GT4. 2008 sees the debut of the new KTM X-BOW, this things have to be seen to be believed. Amazing and look like great fun.



More to follow from me soon inc loads more from GT4.

Hope you like the pics.

I like the large wing on the back of the 911, looks like the GT2 cars from the late 1990s that ran at LM.

Nice to see the KTM on track, lets hope theres more cars for its class in the future.
