just a few I took today, straight out of the box, so be kind. I'll put more up later.



















This I like because of the bubbles in the shot:-

Thanks for posting these up Lowdrag. I would have loved to have made it down to this and just sit track side watching the cars blast past - bliss! The more pics the better wink. Thanks.

ETA The Audi actually looks really good, however its a shame that Aston have had issues with the LMP1's.

Well, it can't be an Audi, because all I heard was the swish of their tyres - after they had passed. I guess on evocative grounds it still has to be the Corvette.

yeah, i can't quite get over the lack of emotion on the audi's as they pass...I seem to remember their chief engineer for the tdi's saying that any noise was wasted energy - well thankfully Corvette are yet to think in that way smile
