Lamborghini LP640 Photo Shoot: Behind the Scenes

Ever wonder what goes into creating the stunning fleet photos at Vulcan Motor Club? Credit goes to our good friends George Tenney and Tim Camuso at George Tenney Photography.

Here’s a behind-the scenes look at a recent studio shoot of the Lamborghini LP640 Roadster – one of five supercars photographed over a three day period.

These images are about defining lines and shadows. The camera stays stationary while the photography team moves light sources and reflectors through the scene. Wheels, windows and body panels become separate pieces. The final image is the blend of each perfectly lit part. View the final photos and get ready for some terrific fall driving on the exotic car tour at World Class Driving.

Just Added: The Audi R8 V-10

How do you make the Audi R8 even better? Simple, add another 111hp. We’re pleased to announce the addition of the extremely exclusive 2010 Audi R8 V10, yes V10, to our amazing collection. With its all-wheel drive, mid-engine V-10 power plant, magnetic suspension, and aluminum and carbon-fiber build, the R8 is a technologically superior supercar that does everything well. The R8 is balanced like a Porsche, runs easily alongside any of our Ferraris, went to the Lamborghini LP560 finishing school, and shows a voracious silhouette.

Low slung and wonderfully noisy, this car is perfectly suited for a cruise that leads to nowhere in particular. The mid-engine AWD R8 is a complete showstopper, with its supermodel looks and dramatic styling, And the beauty is more than skin deep. Give the R8 an empty stretch of tarmac, and it’ll easily keep pace with any of the long list of exotics in the Vulcan fleet.

With numbers that are quite simply impossible to ignore; 0-60 in 3.9 seconds, 60-124mph in 8.1 seconds and a top speed of 197mph, the new R8 V10 will be a leader among the supercar pack. In addition to jaw dropping performance, other enhancements include a Bang & Olufsen sound system, more aggressive body styling, bigger brakes for better stopping power and redesigned wheels.

This amazing car is currently available for use by club members and is available for viewing anytime at the Vulcan clubhouse in Chester, NJ. For more information, or to reserve the Audi R8 V-10 today, contact Vulcan Motor Club at 908-879-7777.

TIMESHARING SUPERCARS: FERRARIS AND LAMBORGHINIS FOR THE DAY
By Jim Motavalli | June 19th, 2009 @ 7:38 am

When Aaron Fessler goes to work, he walks into a garage that is wish fulfillment for the world’s dreamers and Car and Driver subscribers. An Audi R8, polished and gleaming, sits next to an all-business Ford GT-40, which is blocking the exit of a V-12 Aston-Martin DB9, Mercedes SLR McLaren and Lamborghini LP560-4. Did I mention the British Racing Green Tesla Roadster?

Welcome to Vulcan Motor Club, a timeshare for supercars that Fessler—a serial entrepreneur—started in New Jersey circa 2007 with his friend Tom Mizzone. Sign up for a $35,000 one-year membership and you get 40 days of access to a dozen supercars. They’ll even deliver them to you, full of gas (and given their thirst, you’ll need it). This is not the only entry in the field: Club Sportiva has the same basic idea.
