I think he feels youre arrogant.
And I belive you know that you very often can be misunderstood in your statements as they come off somewhat odd in some threads.

And please don't use this post as an excuse to start a new "why are you attacking and insulting me" thread.
I'm not trying to lecture you in any way, just give you some pointers I think youre already fully aware of as you don't seem to be a stupid guy!

You start an negative like discussion about the LM in a McLaren fan forum, you're begging for trouble!

McLaren made 5 LM's to celebrate their achivements at Le Mans and it was never intended to be a real road car or a real racer, it was intended to be exactly what it is, something in between!

I've mentioned this before, but I wouldn't want a converted GTR or an LM as my only F1. I think Mr S did it right, having a road car and then adding an LM seems like a perfect arrangement.

That being said, the LM still ranks as one of my most favorite street legal F1s. Just the fact that something so raw can wear a license plate and storm down the same roadway as Joe Blow and his family in their boring Toyota Camry is simply awesome. I'd love to see the look on every one of their faces as the brutal, in your face LM comes rolling by.

Peleton, Great minds ...

011 is the ultimate automotive alternative to the best sex ever!

Peleton, Great minds think alike ...

011 is the ultimate automotive alternative to the best sex ever! The combination of exterior and interior colour schemes is sublime.

However, that said, I still think *glances up to his 1/12th scale custom F1* that the silver and orange colour combination of 07R, before it was resprayed in Papaya is a pretty hot colour scheme for an F1.

Look out for 07R EXCLUSIVE shots coming to AF VERY soon!

Anyway, I removed (most of) the noise from your cropped image:

I didn't say "thank you" for this, so I thought I better come back and do so. You made a huge difference in the quality of that image without softening it up unecessarily. I know one very painstaking way of doing that by selecting specific areas of the image and blurring them one by one, but I'm wondering if you did it a different way or used a certain filter? Can you explain the process as I have a few other images I'm sure could use that kind of help.

Also, do you have a copy of the magazine with that article? I'm sure we'd all love to see it if you have a way of sharing.

I used Neat Image for the picture. It's great for reducing noise, especially on pictures with higher resolution.
I'm sorry to say that I don't have the magazine. I just recognized Stanley, since I know that he use to testdrive a lot of exotics for the magazine. He has probably driven every one of Tom Bryant Meisners cars by now.

Do you know if it was an issue of Auto, Motor & Sport?

Thanks for the program link. I'll play around with it for sure.

Yes, Auto, Motor & Sport (the Swedish edition) or their sportscar special, Sportbilen (translates to the sportcar).
