I took my photo's on the other classic photo's page without a media pass.
I just walked along with Mr Rick and no one questioned me on not have the armband or passes! Spent about an hour and a half by the crash barrier at the Porsche Curves.
Going to try and set up a website and get accreditation for the 24hours next year though.
Great Photo's though Rick.

Thanks for all the kind words chaps/chapesses ;D No probs with desktop use of course!
Any other car requests from the weekend? Took just shy of 3,000 although there is quite a bit of repetition in there. Grids 3 to 6 pretty well covered and a handful from grid 1.
Cheers

Thanks Rick. Do you mind if I pass these on to Thierry Rondel at the Rondeau project? He will love them. :)
-
Great pictures.
I have taken a leaf out of Martinis book and told the wife I would like to go next year, after much debate I have now agreed to miss next year and go in 2008 instead!
termietermite - I have some of the Rondeau team from the 80's if your interested, not as good as Ricks sorry to say.

Would be a honour! ;D If he uses them though, could he credit www.maisonblanche.co.uk (http://www.maisonblanche.co.uk) please! I've got a few more of the Inaltera at home too....

What we need is a few media passes for those contributing to Werner's guide!

Saw an action photo of the accident in Autosport today. That single photo and caption was the only feature about the Classic!!!!! Letter to Autosport!

Rick - spectacular pics of the Rondeau.
Is it just me - or are the front wheels just too damn small to make this car 'look right'? In fact, I always thought the M379/382 looked all out of proportion, being 'all windshield and empty wheelarches'. Of course it got even worse with the 482, which was just plain fugly (from every angle but the back. Sadly, the only time anyone ever got to see it's hindquarters was as they were lapping the old smoker). Sorry if I've offended anyone by these observations.
-
Thanks Matt! And yes I agree about the front wheels looking rather small in comparison. Still one of my fave cars of the weekend though ;D
Amazed by the remains of Newey's GT40, heard he'd had a little moment but didn't realise quite how scratched the car was!!!!
-
Lovely photos Rick,
Especially love the Alpine Renault A443. The French turbo Bumble Bees are probably my all-time favorite LM cars.
The 936 is a thing of beauty too.

Cheers Fax! I was overjoyed when I heard the A443 and the 936 were both going to be there as I missed the event in 2004. I loved that era and it prompted me to go for the first time in 1981, when the 936 scored its last win :)
When they were running in the last 'grid' just before the finish, the two of them were running just too far apart to get a shot of just them together, I was hoping the 936 could close the gap in the dying minutes but in the end it was the car that died! :( Would have been my all time fave wallpaper I think!
Cheers

Hi Rick,
I've got one of your A443 shots as my wallpaper right now ;) Lovely stuff.

Any Rondeau pics would be great - I have a real soft spot for them, although I agree with some on this thread that the Inalteras are kind of ugly - but great at the same time. He just was a true Le Manster in every way was old Jean. Anybody know of any books about him out there?
-
Time for some more methinks so here are a couple for our Vette fans out there! ;D

:)

Cars, cars and more bloody cars. Doesn't anyone have any picture of bottles and half full glasses and suchlike... something interesting.
>Martini...
-
LOL Martini! Trust you had a good trip back old bean? Pleasure to share a glass (or ten) with you as always.
;D
-
Well, I have some car pictures as well, but also, especially for Martini, some pics from the improvised Poo Bar meeting.
