Happy birthday to this thread!! :dunce: :doggy: :faint:


Being the last day that this race car can be legally driven on the street having just been campaigned in the Classic Adelaide Rally, we thought we'd take it out and get some vids and pics.

For those of you ogling at all the photos I post and sit there thinking "gee it'd be nice to have a dozen or so of these photos on my wall that I can look at throughout the year..." well, good news!

I've invented something which I call - a "Calendar"!!! :) They are very large (13.5"/34cm wide x 19"/48cm high) but damn cool.

And because I couldn't pick just 12 lucky photos, I've designed more than one set to choose from.

If you just want to browse all of them, start here:
---> Aussie Exotics Calendars

For those who prefer a given marque, try these:
---> Ferrari / Lamborghini / Porsche / BMW <---

Here's a few preview thumbnails of the photos which are on them, and also some examples of what the months look like.

PS. All calendars have the Formula One season marked out on them rather than a bunch of useless holidays. :)

Tell me about it, last time I wanted to get some footage through the tunnels I jumped out of the car and stood at the entrance of the tunnels - got myself a nice ride in a police car and an infringment notice that night. :(

Here's the footage... :p

So, back to Classic Adelaide vids... here's the emergency/course car giving it a bit of drift curry through a corner with lights and sirens blazing. :)

And here's the lads in the Ferrari 360 Challenge race cars on the same corner:

Next vid of that corner will likely be a compilation of the rest of the cars that I recorded.

This is a video of a trackday at Wakefield park - about 40 Ferraris attended. It's broken up into 3 parts, each about 4-5 mins long - if you just want to watch one then part 2 is the best. :)

---> Part One
---> Part Two
---> Part Three

Above each youtube vid is a link to the HI-DEF version! These are awesome quality videos and I hope to bring a lot more of them your way over time.
