Awesome photography of Audi R8 Le Mans Prototype. This LMP was also used in 14 hours Le Mans.

The GoaT. Nothing more needs to be said about the car. Sure I may have some recency bias but I don't believe any other model from the past (and certainly not the present) can come close to matching the R8's entries in the record books.


Ahem... anyway, nice pic as ever! And very jelly that you were at that event...

Hey Dan, thanks.  I was late to buy my ticket for the Motorsports Reunion.  Had to pay a premium because I waited too long, got busy or something.  Anyway, I was disappointed to see that the administration has added lots of new safety fencing along three stretches of track - two of them being prime shooting space for those of us who do not have press credentials.  Fortunately, I still have a couple of places available to me but I'm surely going to be limited to usable space going forward.

Damn... that's a bit crap. At least there are still a few good spots for you to shoot. It's such a picturesque circuit that to lose some places shouldn't be too painful, but it always hurts regardless. Been there, suffered that at many a track over the years...
