Discussion in the Australian Ferrari forums.

Marco records another trackday organised by Ferrari at the Ferrari Challenge event at the Imola racetrack. It was such a sunny and nice day that a lot of Ferraris decided to join the event. First i record them parked, but then they start and rev the engines ready to be pulled to the limit into the racetrack.

New baby Porsche helps show off your bald spot

This is a video of a trackday at Wakefield park – about 40 Ferraris attended. It’s broken up into 3 parts, each about 4-5 mins long – if you just want to watch one then part 2 is the best.

Discussion in the Tasmanian driving forums.

So after an overnighter on the Spirit of Tasmania ferry, we get up and attempt to get our cars out of Devonport.

In order to get to the Spirit of Tasmania ferry to put the cars on in the evening, the Adelaide boys had to leave their sleepy little village pretty early in the morning.

The four cars making the journey met up at a servo in the inner-south-eastern burbs to make sure we were all tanked up ready for the journey, all especially trepiditious about the Victorian leg with the knowledge that even the slightest infraction of the speed limit can mean trouble.

Starters from Adelaide were a Porsche 997 GT3, Lamborghini Gallardo SE, Honda NSX, and BMW 550.

Awesome run today, covered 400km of great roads.

Tearing up the serenity of the SA sunday country dawn with the bark of an abundance of Italian and German horses resonating over the hills. Nice breakfast out at Blanchetown, and lots of thumbs up from passing enthusiasts.

Here’s a few happy snaps.
