2014 Porsche Carrera Cup in the paddock (lots of pics)

This year my wife and I got hosted by the Porsche Carrera Cup group. They are running the 2014 Chinese F1GP Support Event and doing it in the best of their capacity believe me. It was nice!

The buffet and champagne was one of the best I had in weeks Paddock passes also allowed us to go spy on some of the latest F1 tech in the pit lane... but this year one of their FIA marshal confiscated my Canon EOS cam and returned it to me when we left the pit area - HD cams are not allowed anymore, mobile phones only.

Baffled exhaust etc... my boxster's NHP performance exhaust now sounds better than a F1 car. For those who didn't know, the loud F1 car engine noise if simply 'gone'. No more. The air intake noise is louder than the engine revs themselves. Very very very SAD. Screw F1 cars anyway, we like Porsche cars anyway!

Those Gt3 are nasty fast.... thank god I don't have one of those I'd kill myself.
