[mini magic]

i have only seen one pic of this car, this one. anyone have any more or any info on it? I have a much bigger version of this pic but it was too big to post here.

Thanks in Advance


EDIT: WTF? How do i upload a pic? EDIT OF EDIT: What the hell? i have to upload it to some af.com site, which doesn't even work and then link it? this blows

I think its an early photo of #007, taken when it was in the hands of a previous owner.

And yes, AF.com has removed the upload capabilites from the site as far as I can tell. You will need to find your own remote host to upload and link to. I suggest Imagestation.com - it's a completely free website hosted by Sony.

webshots.com is good too, you can also get a free account there

I wasn't aware that Webshots allows remote linking though.

so its 007? thanks for the tips as well

[Peloton25]

Well I can't guarantee it's #007 - but that my first thought when I saw the photo. I've gone back and forth looking at photos of #007 and this shot and the similarities are remarkable. I could of course be wrong, but I highly doubt it.

Here's a smaller version of the photo so that everyone knows what we're talking about btw:

was i right in assuming this it 007 too?





btw, if anyone wants free image hosting, just sign up for sc.net and post ur pics in my forum, http://speed.supercars.net/Board?viewForum=y&fID=48 then click the thumbnail, then properties, then copy that and paste it between the img tags here. or if u want you could just email me a pic, and i'll do it, my email is [email protected]

Yes - #007 again. Those photos were taken at a race track in the pit garages in 2001. These were some of the first photos of #007 in the USA to surface on the web. I can't recall which track those images were taken at though. Maybe drewwtms can fill in the details.

While Supercars.net will work to host some photos, their servers are pathetically slow - especially during peak usage of their site. I'd recommend finding a different site to host most images, and only go to them when you really want to post the large stuff.

thanks. was the track possibly lime rock?

BTW, peloton, if you think the servers are slow, get premium, its amazing how much difference it makes, its a completely different server and it makes a HUGE difference, even with dial up


btw, for all u haters, i edited that

New Hampshire Int'l Speedway. We were there for an SCCA Club Race but I don't remember what year it was... 2001 maybe.

That's a nice picture of the car when it was in England. I have never seen any pictures of the car before it was here in the US.

I realize that my DL speed will improve with a Premium acct, however, that still doesn't make it a great place to host photos from as you can't expect everyone who will come across them to get a Premium acct from SC.net. You would honestly be better off hosting the images you will embed into your posts on a site which is geared specifically for free photo hosting. Then I can either teach you to make them hot linked to the larger images hosted at SC.net for those who want them, or you can simply post the link as a URL.

That's what I would do. Let me know if you want the help. It's fairly easy to make an image clickable for a larger version.
