mendaman strikes again!!!

Seriously - anyone who has not browsed all of his latest Flickr contributions over the past several weeks needs to do so!

Also it would be nice if most here would consider leaving him a comment of 'thanks' as I have, since great content like that has in the past been very difficult to come by.

Brands Hatch vs. Spa (click click!)

Yeah, Logica was a one race deal initally ( I did think they appeared another time). IIRC they were local to Ray, McLaren and Brands Hatch. I remember playing with different ideas on the eyebrows many many years ago.

I may actually have the artwork at home for this one. I'll have a look tonight and see if I can find it. Back in the old days, it was all markers, none of this computer and Adobe Illustrator stuff LOL

I really like the colour it has in the picture. But it looks like it's different irl..

Is it a warm shade of yellow or orange?

[Peloton25]

Should be the same Papaya Orange the F1 LMs wear. The hue can shift pretty easily in a digital image making it appear more yellow sometimes and more orange other times. Also your own monitor calibration can have a lot to do with it as well.

Thanks, Erik. Too bad it isn't yellow


Haven;t callibrated in 5 months btw

Going back to a question I raised in the 'No dumb questions about the McLaren F1' thread a while back - the user eebyeck on PistonHeads has shared a pair of F1 GTR images he took at Donnington in 1995, and one of them clearly shows the "PER TÉ AYRTON" graphic on the nose of the car, which was something I'd never noticed.





The second one is available in a slightly higher resolution by clicking.

Bit of a mystery which F1 GTR this might be; regardless I am sure most of you here will enjoy having the photo I just found.

Caption: A McLaren F1 GTR greets the sunrise under the Dunlop Bridge during the 24 Hours of Le Mans race on 16th June 1996 at the Circuit de la Sarthe, Le Mans, France.

For those who enjoy period GTR photos as much as I do, you'll be happy to see this website with archived galleries from Le Mans 1995 through 1998 including coverage from the Pre-Qualifying sessions. Each photo set includes several F1 GTR images that I found to be new so I suspect they will be new for just about everyone else here as well.

Finally after more then 10 years I've decided to scanner some of my Mclaren GTR pics... Sorry for the poor quality but those photos are made in 1996 with a non professional camera...In the next hours/days I'll add some others...
