    UCP summer events!

    SO, our busy summer continues. Wouter has just returned from the LeMans Classic with a TON of images, which will likely be posted later this week. I was at the first ever Canadian Concours d'Elegance last weekend, which will likely be posted today. Next weekend I'll be at Concorso Italia and the Meadowbrook Concours d'Elegance in Michigan, then of course the super-weekend in Monterey mid-august.

    If our time actually allowed it, we could be presenting special events every week of the year. Finances also limit those plans as well.

    It's great to see all the members enjoying the forums and our features. Keep spreading the word to all your friends. We'll hopefully help you out with that in a couple months when we start offering some Ultimatecarpage clothing. Wouter and I are now wearing UCP shirts at our events, so if you see us, tap us on the shoulder and introduce yourself (after we've gotten our shot though).



    I'm not sure where all that blabbering came from. just felt like yappin i guess.

    The European programme will also include the Oldtimer GP on the Nuerburgring in Germany in the second weekend of August.

    There are some pictures of the event at www.lemansclassic.com

    BUT, UCP is going to be much, MUCH better

    LeMans Classic sure was a blast, very exhausting, but looking at the 3400 shots on my pc, it was well worth it. We should have a report up later this week, I'm not sure how large, but it's fair to say the slideshow will be the largest ever seen on Ultimatecarpage.com.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    150 pics seems hardly enough to cover all the beauties that where there. Is there a limit (apart from the amount of work involved) to the size of these shows?

    Well the season is coming to a close; we have two more events remaining. We'll be leaving for the Spa Francorchamps track in an hour. The event is the LMES (www.lmes.net) race, where modern and historic prototype racers will take to the track.

    The last event of the summer season is the Mondial de l'Automobile, or Paris Motorshow, which will welcome the press on Thursday and Friday in two weeks time. That promises to be a perfect finale of this awesome year!
