Again I said the DBR9 will run in Le Mans in 2006, never did say whether it was running in anything else in 2005. I am pretty sure they are not running Le Mans next year and are focusing on the smaller races.

Since you are making a personal attack, I'll stoop down and make one too. You aren't the head honcho for Aston Martin Racing so hush. You don't know anything about the team and you are just like me a couch racer who thinks they know too much. So unless you are getting your pay stubs signed by Aston Martin lets all just stare at the amazing car and hope they run in 2005 against the Pro Drive Maranellos.

Jesus Christ, people!
Can we talk about the damn car, or do we want to debate semantics?
Mike's lighting explanation settled the "green" light issue long ago.
Sean...your ass was handed to you on this one. Accept it.

There is special studio film for use under tungsten lights, or if it was taken with a digital camera the white balance could be set for the tungsten lamps. Turning on the xenon headlights of the car add another light source of different color temperature. You ever notice how fluorescent lights show up green in photos? Xenon lamps have a similar color temperature to fluorescent lights, so in this picture which is balanced for the color temperature of the prevailing tungsten lighting, the xenon lights appear green.
