What Happens When You Mix 3 Cars, 1300 HP, And A Camera?

As some of you might know, I spent this past weekend in Des Moines with PorscheAudi and jmusser. I had told Pete back in early September that I'd be back to shoot his Boss 302 and since this is one of the last few weeks of decent weather before it starts snowing, I knew I had to get down there!

To get me to come down sooner rather than later, Pete sweetened the pot by offering to bring out his dad's 997.2 GT3 for me to shoot as well. How could I resist that?! So with the Boss, the GT3, and Jon's M3 all cleaned up, I let Pete pick the locations and I started shooting.

Enjoy!

After the first location by Pete's place, we drove out of the city a ways to a grain rail yard to finish out the night's shoot.

That night, I went out on the town with some other friends in the area but Pete, Jon, and I planned to meet up the next morning to shoot some rolling shots. I awoke the next morning to this beautiful view from my 7th floor corner suite and had Pete pick me up to head out to his parents place to pick up the GT3 and meet Jon.



























All in all, it was a great weekend and I can't wait til spring to head back down and do it all over again.

It was great to have you down, Alex. As I've said a million times...UNREAL pics!

Can't wait to have you back down in the spring!

Good vid! I didn't realize how bad the GT3 started to walk the Boss once it got into 3rd gear !

Great job, Alex! Some of your best stuff here IMO. So much love for the .2 GT3.

Awesome thread! Such great pics, what an opportunity to shoot those three cars all together!

The rolling shots are crystal clear. Great locations you picked too, the grain mill ones are excellent.
Great work!
