Monterey Weekend 2008 - Part 1

Monterey Weekend 2008 - Part 1
The Monterey Peninsula, California becomes every automobile enthusiast's place to be for one week every August. The selection of cars on display range from the sublime to the ridiculous. We just arrived at Pebble Beach this afternoon and were passed by a 599 at the gate, had a Veyron drive past us on 17-mile drive and then had to sit behind a Carrera GT outside The Lodge. Yeah, it's proving tough but we'll get through it...

If you've got a spare few dollars languishing in your bank account, you're gonna wish you were at the Blackhawk Exposition. Got a cool million? How about a 1973 Porsche 911 RSR ? Or a 1914 Mercedes 50hp Tourer (with 38" wheels!) for a mere $750,000? And, for your inner James Bond, how about a 1960 Aston Martin DB4 GT ?

Personally, we know a beaut when we see one and words cannot describe the drool-inspiring gorgeousness of the 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 Berlinetta . Price? Upon request. Keeping it company, a 1966 275 Ferrari GTC Berlinetta "Clienti Competizione". Again, if you have to ask, you can't afford it, but we'd be surprised if either of these cars went for less than $5m.

V12 Mustang Takes the $50 Amazon card for Saturday













Tight race yesterday for our $50 Amazon Gift Card Kudo Chalenge. A Vauxhall Victor, lost out to the V12 Vanquish-Powered Mustang by a score of 21 to 31 Kudos. Micarone managed that total with 8 people adding the video to their favorites and 23 sites linking to it. MofoBucs took the most Kudos yesterday with 57, but since they are a StreetFire Channel partner their race compilation was not a part of yesterday’s competition.

DBR9 Pit Stop Demostration











In this video you get to see how Aston Martin preforms a public simulation of a DBR9 pit stop a week before Petit Le Mans. The driver drives in at high speed and after the wheels are on does a burnout exit. Be sure to look at the other two videos of the DBR9 burnout and donut on AcornATL's profile page.

DB9 video short

A short & sweet video for the world's sexiest car.... well maybe in my mind at least. I like how the video was going, wish it was longer, but then I guess it's better to leave you wanting, which is always the feeling when an Aston Martin drives by.

#008 Download the Petit Le Mans Music Video



I'm still shaking off the holidays trying to get back into the routine, but this is a music video I've been dying to do for a while. TunerVlog beat me on getting a Music video out using this great song by t r y ^ d but I loved the idea too much not to let it go. Especially given the subject matter. Anyhow, so here it is Podcast #008 "The Final Rewind" by t r y ^ d with video shot from the 2006 Petit Le Mans in at Road Atlanta.
