He just span around on the spot clicking the camera and lucked in on this one.... So good it looks like a rig. How fast were you going? yeah - quite quick compared to how I normally go for a shot like this actually...

<not trying to offend>
Some great shots there - but IMO they now look overly photoshopped, and therefore a bit naff. Well, not naff, but not as good - esp the one witht the "lights" on the apex, I bet the original is tip top.
However, feel free to ignore me, as I have no photographic ability, and the "linyness" round the car due to colour changes, photoshop etc might just be a result of making the jpegs small for the interweb.

You picked the one photo that has had almost no photoshop as an example  George

Dear George,
Please see disclaimer above - lol!
Sorry for accusing you of finding the "lens flare" option of Pshop, my bad =)
The colours etc in the original are far nicer to my eyes tho.
Again, not that I can comment - I always end up with a "srangely blue" tint to anything I manage to get out of the wife's 400D.

Okay, I've finished editing the whole set, including re-editing the older ones:  200 with the handbrake on. Impressive ;-)

Er...catch up at the back? edited: Matey get's his Aqua Blue 997 GT3.2 soon apparently, will post up some pics for the congnescenti in due course. but won't be as good as Mr Williams shots, mainly due to the fact they'll be on an iphone and as I can't shoot.

Fabulous car and pics
Out of interest, cos I'd like to do it on my Exige, is it legal to not have a front reg plate or was it cos you were on the track ?
Thanks

Thanks It's illegal unless the DVLA gives permission (only give permission if there is nowhere on the car for one to go I think, such as the Enzo). We had it off as it looks MUCH better without it!

Murzo there is a red gt3 as per my posting,rhd.I will see if i can find the dealer in the programme of the classic car show,or call the organisers,they were in hall 1 or 2. Tried to call the organisers no joy im afraid, could you possibly find the name of the dealer please? Porsche Chiswick in West London offered me blow dogs old car which is red so i presume its the same one, try them they called me about 1 or 2 weeks ago. They tried telling me the owner was selling it as the ride was too firm, I asked if the number plate spelt something like blow dog and the guy said actually it does, i said i think he's sold it as buying an RS!!! Not quite the firm ride being a problem..... lol The black car looks awesome!!!

My Gt3 arrives next month Hey Curley, Black belts arrived today and will swap tomorrow. Old red ones are gonna be wrapped up in the new boxes and stash in the 'keep for future resale' box. Malcolm at MSAEuroupe was very helpful getting the belts at a good price. Try him. Cheers Pete
