No, not a friend. The track group I went with hired a photographer to take pictures.

There were over 40+ cars there that day and there are many, many pics. Here are some of the more "interesting" street cars that were there.

Mini Cooper S


Souped up Supra


Z06


The lone Audi


New Evo X


RX-8


Some older Ferrari's......



Some BMW M cars.....




Some P-cars.....

Seeing those photos makes me want to take a trip to the 'Ring again and test my new 18-200mm lens!

Re: Another day at Mosport International Raceway

Thanks for the pics PCV. Great shots as always! [How's the heel-n-toe and left-foot braking coming along? ]

Have you had a chance to experience any of the true track-burners like the GT3 RS or Z06 or such like? I'd love to hear about your experiences if you have.

Yeah, I'd work in a sewerage farm for a week to drive a GT3 RS around a circuit like that.

Haha.....no heel-n-toe necessary in the C55, and I never left foot brake.

However, I think I got the hang of heel-n-toe in the 135i. Took the 1er to the track 3 times this past summer. Here is a previous thread about that with video and some pics too:
http://www.germancarzone.com/pit-gen...ent-track.html (Took the 1er to Mosport Driver Development Track)


If I could have the "ultimate" track car, it would be a GT3 RS.......unfortuantely, I haven't had the chance to even ride in one during a track day, but I'll let you know if I ever do!!! I have ridden in a Z06, but only on the streets/highways and not on a track. I have a friend who has one, and maybe I can convince him to go tracking with me next year.
