Now that the article/photos have been published in todays West Australian newspaper I can share some of the images from the day.
Alex Forrest (journalist) and I were invited to Barbagallo Raceway to take part in the Lamborghini Driving Academy. The manufacturer flew staff and 4 cars (3 Aventadors and a Gallardo "pace car") to Perth for the event which aims to teach owners and media how to drive these supercars fast but also safely.
Grab a copy of the paper to read all about the day!
I have recently returned from the Asia-Pacific launch of the new flagship supercar from Lamborghini - the Aventador. The event was held at the Sepang F1 circuit over two days. Many thanks to Lamborghini for the opportunity and hosting a brilliant event.
You can view more from the event by watching the launch video.
This weekend just gone I flew over to Alice Springs to meet up with a few supercars (transported there on a truck) and their owners, same sort of idea as the previous times we went out there in 2005/6/7.
I think we covered about 2000km in the 3 days of driving and saw some amazing sites along the way – Alice Springs, Ayers Rock, The Olgas and Kings Canyon. Different place/hotel every night so we covered quite a bit of ground.
The roads out there vary a little but for the most part they are amazing and make for some great high speed driving.
Enough talking, here are some pics – obviously not a photoshoot as it was more just snapshots of the road trip along the way but I think they turned out quite well.
You can see more of my photos and words about the adventure over at Downshift.
