Great pics, thanks for sharing the eye candy. Last July I stopped to gas up the Cayman in Bishop, CA. when a Maserati MC-12 pulled in, I was left dumbfounded (if you'v ever been to Bishop, CA you'd know what I mean) I forgot what I'd stop for.

Well I guess running something smaller than 19" wheels on that 430 Scuderia is out of the question look how little clearance there is!

Great pics as usual Pete. I realized my camera battery was dead so I figured I could just leave the photography to the pro

It was great meeting everyone! This show is always awesome!!!

Next year I think we should look for safer parking spots. That lady talking on her cell and parking one handed next to my car was very scary. I am just amazed that all she did was hit that Range Rover's tire and not my bumper or something else.

If you park all the way by the registration you should be fine. I've parked there and it seemed that most people avoided that area, given there was only one entrance/exit open to the parking area.

Okay, I am going to be a photo critic.

Redridge: I love your pictures but sometimes the light is too bright, especially the reflections in the paint and off the chrome. That being said, I think your pics of the vintage cars are amazing. Really amazing.

Pete: Your pictures tell a story. Hopefully they'll tell the story of a Fall Foliage Drive next Saturday. No rain.

the d3 has a tendency to underexpose ... I cranked it up in the morning, then by noon I was overexposing...

I also think that Photobucket does a crappy job reducing the file.... it looses way to much deatails





Yup def bad when reduced... I need a new host site... any recommendations?
