    430 in the tunnel

    Here are some photos of my 430 in the cross harbour tunnel. Silverstone is my favorite color by far.

    William, let's go for more pics next time! We have to show those blue flames coming out of the exhaust tips

    Cheers,

    awesome pictures.

    I like how they turned out. They would be extra great if they went a little blurry.

    What camera was utilized for these shots?

    Is your tachometer black instead of yellow or red?

    Very nice car Tai Lo!
    Griogrio Silverstone is a very nice color, very similar in my opinion to Porche's Slate grey.
    Enjoy!
    I hope your license plate has a lot of 8 on it!

    It's a red one. The red appears black at night, whereas the yellow is yellow all the time.

    Great shots. You captured the beauty of the car. How did you do that in a tunnel?

    Re: 430 in the tunnel

    1. Make sure seatbelt is fasten. Check
    2. Camera strap around neck. Check
    3. Make sure there is no lose clothing, sunglasses, or items that the wind can catch adrift. Check.
    4. Lean upper body out while securing camera ready for shooting. Use elbow to secure position on the side of the car.
    5. Point and shoot away

    Of course it was fun taking pics of such a machine because not only does it looked great in motion, it made the most amazing noise that was echoing off the tunnel walls.

    Re: 430 in the tunnel

    Thanks and bravo to Karmen! I enjoy the 430 very much as a weekend car but the handling and cornering speed is no match to the RS though. GT3RS is indeed a much faster car apart from acceleration.

    We'll try to catch a shot of the blue flames from the exhaust next time.
