Finally we are back to something like decent weather here in SoCal !
This week was BMW week - I think that half of OC probably owns at least once BMW, so you would probably imagine that it might be a tad busy ?
Understatement of the year - it was crowded out.
Due to the crowds I gave up with the static shots and decided to concentrate on the moving ones - I enjoy those more, so why not ?
Poor Don therefore had over a thousand images to choose from. Therefore this is post is even more of a bandwidth nightmare than usual...
Enjoy !














































































































































































































































dunt(tm) forget to tune in next week, same time, same place.

The Batmobile was the comedy element this week 
I have seen Chip Foose there a few times and apparently Jay Leno was there a couple of times last year although I actually missed him, oh and Dan Gurney was there for Ford weekend as was Carol Shelby.

*breathes in*
M1, Z4, Z3 and 'batman' BMWs
The BMW 250s
The white merc on white lipped wheels 
Carrera, F430, Ford GT and Red Lambo Gallardo Spyder  
The Chevrolet SSRs 
The black Diablo 
That, and the older cars, looks like the best mix I've ever seen Top quality as always

Also the DS, the Merak, the Monte Carlo, the M1, the stretched 'busa. 
E-Type does look terrible on those alloys though.
