Re: Recap of 'Rest of the World' F1 Fleet

The Veyron is hauling the equivalent of six 274 lbs. guys around compared to the F1. Mmmmm... Wow. Peloton, this brings up a question in regards to the recent event in Italy: Do you recall offhand what the fuel consumption was like? I'm guessing if a similar trip were conducted with Veyron, there would be very frequent gas stops.

Was not really monitoring that and my offer to pay for a tank was denied.

It's not really spotted, it was the Windsor concours d'elegance where #007 was attended.

Re: Recap of 'Rest of the World' F1 Fleet

The Franschhoek Motor Museum have finally added a page for their F1 to the website:

http://fmm-preview.co.za/dt_portfolio/mclaren-f1/

The clip that mclarenman shared in the Video thread the other day is also featured there.

EDIT: Strange - it is now redirecting to the old website. Perhaps it was up for testing?

Re: Recap of 'Rest of the World' F1 Fleet

Got a note from two of the people at FMM - indeed their new website was just up for testing and Google managed to invade it without warning. They were rather surprised that I had seen it and wanted to know how.

It will be back in a short time but they asked me to remove the content for now from any place I had shared it so you might notice the second link is gone and I reverted back to my previous signature image for now. If you've reshared that content in any other places besides your hard drive perhaps you could also heed their request.

Re: Recap of 'Rest of the World' F1 Fleet

If not, I have them both to share eventually.

I came close to posting the shot with the ladies on GTspirit's FB wall which, if they had chosen to feature, would have been all over the place by now.

An article about Dean Wills' racetrack. Briefly mentions his old f1

http://www.news.com.au/travel/news/l...-1226533204151

The privately owned road in Kulnura, on the Central Coast, is a 5.1km Formula One-style track with 22 turns, described by one motorsport champion as the second-best track in the world.

That's not #029, that's #016. Owner even appears in the photos.

Cool pics though!

I love the colour on #016, definitely one of the best.

Re: Recap of 'Rest of the World' F1 Fleet

#016 isn't the only F1 the Yue Shing Towing company has moved. Along with some other impressive pieces of rolling carbon fiber, there's a shot of #053 here and also one of the silver cars SPS had - either #063 or #064 - both images taken back in 2007.

Thanks to Alex Penfold for the tip.
