Default Just got back from a week @ Spa with pics

We took our race team over to spa for yearly classic car race meet,

We left last Wednesday at 6am, we took with us -

* DB9 Aston Martin
* Lotus cortina
* DB4 Aston Martin
* 2x DBS V8'S
* MG v8

We also had a film crew filming our journey and our whole trip, which included theirs cameras being fitted into the DB4 as it was being raced in the 6hr endurance race on the Saturday night.

I saw some very gorgous cars both privately owned and being raced.

Here are some pics I took of our team and the cars we took and I saw.

This is the team once we arrived at Spa at 8pm



These are the first pics I took the very next day





Setting up the team area






Some pics of the cars we took











DB4 being preped for the 6hr







The film crewing fitting up the DB4 & interviewing Skippy




Some of the cars seen















THE DADDY OF CARS WAS THERE

*Skip and James



*Me and Mark



Im bloody knackered [/b]

It was awsome, some of the cars racing were priceless, besides the reaces we were in the other best race was the classic grand prix masters, which has the F1 cars from the 70,80 and 90's era, and some of them got serious damage
