Its time to upgrade from my trusty Canon Powershot, but here are some pics I hope you all will enjoy.

There is something about the handcrafted pieces on vintage italian cars that hold such incredible beauty, I can stare at them for hours. One of the main reasons I love vintage car racing so much is it allows me to hours gazing at the absolutely stunning engines, suspension, dashboards, shift lever assemblies, pedals, etc, etc, etc. Its like going to a museum where the sculptures are actually driven. Then there are the sounds they make....
