Hello Everyone,

I had the chance of going to Le Mans on Sunday for the DTM race. There were other races also: Seat Cup, Carrera Cup, F3 and FFSA.

I am posting some pictures out of many I took. It was an amazing experience.

@Racerf1

I will try to post as many pictures I can but its difficult as there are too many things to share. I would also like some comments from you regarding the technical aspects of the cars.

This is one of the best moments of the day:) Me with Mika Hakenen. We were lucky to get a hold of him in the Paddock because early in the morning before he was leaving for Pits.

1) In Porche Paddock. We had tickets for the Paddock and Pits also so it was really nice to see the cars up close and personal.

2) Captured on Camera after buying the Ferrari official cap and behaving like a kid:)

I just loved those AMGs on display in the Mercedes Paddock... 1 S class and 1 C class...

@Omaqsood
I will try to answer any technical questions as possible.

But that pic with Mikka was great, loved him when he used to race against Schmy.

Corvette and Vipers for the FFSA cup. See the fumes coming out of Corvette after getting cranked and idling early in the morning. Beautiful!
