make sure to go in the bush's if you decide to do more than walk past... :lol:

 

I saw an F-Type today, also managed to talk to the dealer guy about it..and he managed to get me to buy a raffle ticket for a chance to win it(or a XK..or a choice of Range Rovers) for a weekend. Was for a charity that I know someone who's getting help from as well.

 

Also seen my new car, not had a shot of yet though. ;)

Guess I'll have to go back to Monaco some day (I went on the year 2000, I was 8 by that time..)

 

It's nice there when it's sunny. Loads of nice cars, 2x more car spotters than cars, great city in the evening and amazing roads in the hills. It is really crowded and I didn't like the famous Casino. Not that the building was bad, but too many cars, too many people standing next to them and yelling that OMG this is really a Ferrari and too many car spotters. :rolleyes:

 

BTW Tim, the Mac seems that it is a press car... :hmmm:

Gotta love the F12!

 

Sure. I can't remember much of it, haha, but there were also some nice gardens. Not sure where, or what exactly, but they were pretty good with a good view at the city. I have got a few photos and can upload them if you want to see them. :)

 

Sure do as you wish!

You bought an all access pass? Nice pics!

 

Nope, we got standard tickets at the gate. We were just really lucky and cleaver at the same time. After the 3rd Race we stayed to see the podium and if we could get autographs to let the traffic die down(Knockhill has...interesting exit for the cars). We then decided to walk slowly back to the car then see the gate to the track was open and a few folk on the track so we though "what the hell, we can cut the track and get the to the car quicker". We did that then decided to get a few pictures (one of me sitting in a fold-back chair and such on the track), then we put the stuff in the car. Insted of leaving (huge traffic still) we though "lets walk round the track" (got pictures as well). We did a lap then seen the cars still in the pits, and we though we'd chance our luck walking in and taking photos.

That worked out for us as nobody minded us being there(team staff & such), and even helped to push a car along. Near enough every car from the BTCC was there bar a handful! So we whent nut's taking photos at that range!

The VIP pass's dont include stuff like that!

And after that we bumped into Matt Neil (3 time BTCC champion and one of the best drivers at the moment), and he happly posed with us for pictures! :D

 

I'll do a thread by the end of the week about the whole story and ton's of pictures! :nods:

 

Here's another I saw...

jaja, nice move ;). And you were lucky enough to walk around the track and being in the pits, so jealous! I'd really like to see those photos ;)

 

This guy left his engine running to keep the AC cool… what a douche
