Thought I would post a few pics from a wonderful weekend. This weekend, the annual Keeneland Concours benefitting the UK Childrens Hospital was held in Lexington KY. A great concours turnout was seen, with incredible cars representing a wide range of marques. I'll start with a few from the drive out to the concours...

 

You're missing an Enzo!!! Seems like a fun time! As always RufMD, live it up!!

 

Some of the highlights at the Concours included a Jaguar D Type that was breathtaking to behold.....and a McLaren M8 Can-Am car that defined outrageous. The generous owner, Mike Dunkel, gave me the best B-day present ever by allowing me to sit in the car and go through the startup routine....cold crank the engine for 2-3 secs a couple of times, then hit the fuel pump switch and cold crank for 2-3 secs again...then flip the ignition switch, and hit the starter button...BAMMMMMM ! holy hell what a noise...the engine was so responsive, it only took 1/2-1 inch of throttle linkage movement to make the engine bark and ears bleed...amazing is just not adequate for the experience....

 

wow...beautiful. i could look at your garage all day
Is the F50 yours as well?

 

The D Type is beautiful to behold in person....

 

Some more pics from the concours...special thanks to EasyC for helping to shuttle my cars to the event ! Also, it was nice to see Kraftwerk and Vishnus at the event as well.

The Gallardo Spyder is painted in a one off copper colour, and the steering wheel is the only non-black factory wheel in the US according to the owner. The Howmet turbine was a joy to hear starting...

 

Whoa! I just got done doing a drive around town looking for inspiration and to come back to this is just great. Thanks for the pics!

---edit
Whoa thats wierd, one of the streets I was driving on soaking in inspiration was keeneland drive. lol how wierd the coincidence.

 

Thanks for the pics Jas. How did the F40 hold up against the F50?

 

random pics....

 

After the Concours, there was an after party at the Aviation Museum...got some really nice shots there...all in all, I had a blast this weekend, and a great cause was the benefit in the UK Children's Hospital. This Concours is getting better and bigger every year. In 2010, the World Equestrian Championships are being held in Lexington Ky. The featured marque that year will be Ferrari. Some heavy hitters in the Ferrari collecting world are being lined up for that event, and it should be something to behold.

 

Beautiful pics as always Jas. If you ever need an extra person to help bring your cars to the show, I'm available!

 

Nah, I've got EasyC man, I'm all set ! I should mention, the F50 belongs to a friend of mine. Car looked awesome running on the road...

 

Great pics Jas, thanks for sharing!

 

wonderful pictures as always

 

GREAT SHOTS! I could see it now. You neighbors were driving by thinking, "Finally someone has topped Jas!"
