I have an Idea for a great Group Photo

Postby CJ_Boxster » Tue Mar 18, 2008 12:51 pm

Ok this is pretty sketchy but hear me out...

I bet someone has done this already However probably not a group of Porsches.

How about we get our pcars on a freeway, we take up all the lanes and gradually slow down to a stop and point the nose of our cars toward the center lane and someone (Richard) runs out infront of us while we are stopped and have stopped traffic and snap acouple photos and then we are off. Probably a 45 second thing.

Yeah it woulld probably look best if taken as the sun is almost down when the sky close to orange just before our headlights need to be turned on... the load of traffic would look cool in the background behind us.

Something like this... It would look a hell of a lot nicer with our cars in real life.

Now we just need Participants... Depending on how wide the freeway we choose is, we probably need atleast 10 Pcars.

Well having the traffic jam behind us is apart of the picture and idea... When people see the picture, they see rebelion, free spirited risk takers... that is suppose to be the essence of the Photo. Without the traffic jam in the background, you lose all that.

I do agree with the elevated picture angle but to acheive that Eli would need to bring his truck and Richard stand on the bed and snap a few quick photos so we arent there more than a minute.

for some reason I think Dre may have some insight into this...so I must agree...


the only way to do this is VERY VERY early in the AM on a SUNDAY...on a EMPTY freeway.

We can all use the enterance of the 710 frwy where we always start our runs..... In the early morning the frwy enterance way shouldn't be very hard to take for a few seconds.....

Only problem with using that part of the freeway is you see a big ass sign that says "RECYCLING - BOTTLE 5 cents CANS 7 cents"

We can all drive down about a 1/4 mile and all pull over. We can all pull out for a few seconds between signal light breaks.... I think we should be able to get some 30-sec. min. brakes in there.....
