Awesome...saw your pix on FB too. The 904 has got to be one of the sexiest forms of all time. _________________ erstwhile owner of just about every 924 variant ever made |

| The fact that the 904 had a Holley carb kind of blew my mind a little. That Audi is one of the two cars that were so successful at Le Mans in the early 2000s |

Great pics. I really do love the looks of the 904. So much so that I nearly bought the Auto Atlanta kit for a 914 to make a close replica. I didn't though.
Maybe next year I will make it out. Do you have any more pics? _________________ Cheers;

Yes I havr more pics. I will try to post them later. If you can afford it the Beck 904 replica is the way to go. |

I think that 904 was at Sebring this year too. I should post my pics of it. It was just sitting on an open trailer in the infield, hanging out...
The audi LM car is stunning. IIRC they ran it at Watkins Glen at the Zippo last fall. 2006 champion maybe?
The polished aston martin is breath taking. I have pics of that from back in the day (maybe 15-20 years ago). IIRC is isn't chromed or paint, it is polished AL. |

| Yeah I figured out the Aston was polished by getting so close to it the owner got nervous. The owner of the Audi practically asked me to sit in it. |
