Racing Car @ Phillip Island Historics
Posted By: HGMonaro, 03-14-2008, 04:48 PM

some pics from recent Historic day at Phillip Island. Just noticed this thing resizes pics if they are too big, probably better to do it oneself

Absolutely love number 2, the overhead image. Non-standard = not forgettable. Good work.

I love #2 as well, you just don't see many shots like that and it is a good quality one too! Thanks for sharing

Like others, I really dig #2. However, I also enjoy the shot of the deep blue Capri - brings back memories, since these things were available in the states in the sixties.

I love car shots; keep 'em coming.

Nice shots.

First shot reminds me of some of the older race vehicles from GT4.
The front car in the first one looks like the Toyota Race car from 88.

thanks for the comments.

For the car lovers, the cars in the 1st pic are are Porsche 956C, a Lola and a Tiga. All are race onbly cars although I believe Vern Schuppan had a detuned one as a road car (in the States) years ago. 2nd one is a Formula Junior Lola (1960) and the 3rd is Glenn Seaton, a very sucessful Touring Car driver here in Oz, having a run in the type of car he started his racing career in. Must have taken a bump in the rear earlier as they wouldn't have turned up with it looking like that! He was quite quick in it.

I actually took over 700 pics but I bombard you with all of them
