Default (Photos Added) RMA 'Ring Photos 'the other cars'

As some of you know from TeamDrugMoney's thread he attended a RMA Track Day at the Nuerburgring where I met up with him for a quick chat but mostly I was there to capture some great images of his brand new baby as well as get a few stills of the other 'toys' attending the event.

Sorry for the huge post in advance

Enjoy.

AWESOME STUFF! Someone told me today that the Ferrari in the pics is a super rare car, one of 4 left. Is this true? There sure were some wicked fast cars and drivers out there. That yellow cup car was untoucheable. Harry, how fast did he pass us when we were out there? The dude just slid right around us and a corner, amazing!

Thanks for sharing your pics with us!

Yeah, that F-car is rare. At first i thought it was an F-40 but then when the driver closed all the lids I knew it was something even more serious as far as Ferrari collectibles goes.

And for the cup car. We were moving at blistering speeds and that thing passed us as if I were in my 987S No offense to TMD's GT3 but that car and that driver was just that damn fast, just one of those had to experience first hand moments to understand what real speed is like!!

I'll look into what I uploaded already and what else I can share that hasn't been seen.

That is a 288 GTO Evoluzione. There were only 5 built.

Very nice...that F50 looks great in silver. I've only seen red or yellow before.
Great photography too.

Thanks everyone, it's always a pleasure getting to shoot such fine automobiles doing what they are meant to do.

All of these photos were shot with a Canon 1D MkIIn body and 300 F4IS lens
