        Oh man! Scanning these pictures took a lot more time than I thought. Maybe I should starting saving up for a digital camera

        Anyways, here are the pictures that I took. enjoy!!



        I had an early start on Saturday, April 06 at the autoshow, and look at what I see on the way there


        This M Roadster has its eyes on the Acuras ...


        ... watch out behind you though (my bro in the upper-left corner too, )


        What the hell is that staring behind us?!


        *** The Next Morning ***

        A new day awaits us


        We're on our way with Sveilside taking some video


        Smile!


        Chillin' at the meeting place in Marysville


        Dinan everywhere!


        Menacing


        A grand entrance by an 850i


        Stongard Clear Bra


        Ladies and Gentlemen, we will are now flying at cruising speed ...


        ... if you feel uneasy, there are bags in front of you


        The Crew


        The machines


        DINAN


        Another menacing look


        A mean trio


        Inside the immaculate 850CSI


        and last but not least, Guillaume's balding tires

        Looking at these FILM based pictures makes me want to start picking up my old 35mm SLR camera again. The quality of those pictures is just unbelieveable. Good job, Paolo! You're as good as I am if not better when it comes to taking pictures! I daresay that you're a natural at this stuff!

        Thanks again for the pictures!

        Great photos guys. Makes me itchy to get out to the Boston meet that is coming up soon.

        Not to go off topic here, but...

        Boston Rocket, when I first saw this photo, I thought it was your father for a sec... LoL. Then again...i'm way tired and maybe he doesn't. oh well. =P

        I completely forgot a particular picture that I'd also taken and seeing this one reminded me!
