Default Ferrari Challenge, Ford Cosworth (700 hp), Jaguar XK 140

Today was a kart race in the inner city of graz.
I made some pics of the cars which were standing beside the track and doing a few rounds.

I start with the Ferrari Challenge:

the pics of the other cars will follow in a new post otherwise it´s getting too big for 56k users.

It was wet when this car drove around the kart track, so it couldnt show its whole power.



















Here are the next cars i saw today at the kart race in Graz.

Ford Cosworth: This Car is used for mountain races in Austria.
It has a 2 litre Cosworth engine with 700 hp :shock: and a weight of 1080 kg.
It looks ugly, but its very fast and has an absolutely mindblowing sound.

homepage of the tuner: http://www.gabat-tuning.at







Jaguar XK 140

No need to open two topics

BTW, the host were the pics are is very very slow, the pics are quite big so it takes some 5 minutes even on a DSL 1200 (to tell the truth after 5 min I gave ip and only the first picture was fully loaded :roll: ) as mine to load the whole topic... you could consider maybe photbucket or some other free host allwing remote linking for the nect pics you plan to post.

Thanks for the tip.

Now each pic is under 200kb, hope it is better now.
The problem is that i don´t know a better file host.
I can upload any file size and not only 200kb, but yeah it´s fu**ing slow.

We told you already, please use photbucket.com for instance! Or imageshack or whatever else the list on that topic is enough to find another one, don't you think?
