Supercar Challenge 2012

Supercar Challenge 2012

It's the FIA-GT round here at the track of Zolder. Not much of action here with the FIA-GT1 and GT3. I miss the Corvettes and the other supercars of the past years.

Also in this weekend is the Supercar Challenge. This series run by V-Max out of the Netherlands, is great thing. You can see 2 C6R's, 1 C5R and a Callaway Z06 GT3 in one race.

Here are a few shots, more will follow later on:

Re: Supercar Challenge 2012

The Camaro had some brake problems during the free practice runs.

They've changed the discs a few times, but the problem stayed. I saw it run with hot red brake discs, you could smell them from meters away.

More shots are on the way, I'm working trough all the shots and have to make a good selection.
