Are your blue kart shoes an homage to El Matador?

"I had a good battle with Michael," said Jacques, " but it was very difficult to overtake him. Then we caught some traffic (Giovanni Lavaggi's Minardi) in the fast corner before the pits. I have been telling the team that one could overtake on the outside there and they said that they would come and pick me out of the guardrail. I had nothing to lose. It was worth taking a big risk. I got him on the outside. My oval experience helped there a little bit. That was a lot of fun."Overtaking Schumacher on the outside in Estoril's curling final corner - called Senna these days - is something which only those with serious steel in their backbones should consider. And it took Schumacher by surprise."I was behind the Minardi and I knew that if I followed him through the corner I would be slow down the straight and Jacques would be able to pass me," Schumacher explained. "So I pulled off to get a gap. Jacques used the opportunity to come alongside me. I looked in the mirror and I didn't know where he was and then I saw him beside me. It was a scary moment because he came with his wheel between my wheels so I could not back off because he would have gone over my front wheel and would have had a big accident."Who dares wins, so they say, and Jacques certainly did. Schumacher had been out-Schumachered. "I told you it could be done," Jacques told his engineers over the radio.

I disagree, I thought the F310 looked bad as ****...esp in high nose form. Them rounded air intakes and muscular looking engine cover.

The '96 Williams won the title doe. (because the Ferrari was gay)

Things that are hard: low shutter speeds at 200mm+ into the sun at relatively low shutter speeds (~1/150-1/200). Things that are bad at taking fotos: esteban. Things it was WAY TO ******* HOT for taking fotos: WEC cars before dusk.

These are pulled in their original (resized) glory from my camera. Hence the no crop and funny colors. So just deal.

PICS! LOVE EM.

PROTIP the green streak on the vette/ferrari is from the UV filter, it's ok to pull it off if you don't mind getting a little dust on your lens. just clean it asap and put UV filter back on.

the P1 pics are glory. some definitely 8x10 framability right dere

thanks falcon!

truth be told, I was trying to get them in that sliver of light (see the vette, which btw was so obnoxiously loud. Loved it) for all the funky things going on. Had no idear the green thing was from the UV filter...

I've got a **** ton more, maybe I'll even get a print maybe??
