The smell of race fuel filled the air and the thunderous blast of their exhaust painfully filled my ears.. I didn't have any ear plugs, so my ears were definately pounding... note to self: bring frikkin ear plugs next time...

Wow man, you're a really good photographer. You do this for a living? I can tell you've got a good aesthetic eye for imagery.

wow.. Thanks.. actually, it's just a hobby (right now).. I've only had my camera for a month (or so) and have been going through trying to learn all of the functionality and settings. Eventually, I hope this to be a full-time commitment (who knows). Im trying to save up for a Canon 70-200mm f2.8 L with Image Stabalizer (IS), but it will take me some time, since the damn lens is so expensive. I've rented the lens before, so I know what it can do, and was sold on it..

The hard decision now is, do my mod my G, or save money for the lens?? sigh.. decisions.. decisions..

Thanks again!!

hahaha wow dood I so into photography a few years ago when I was still in college taking a couple of photography classes. Except being a college student I was poor so no money for really good camera.

I just have my old SONY DSC-505v that has the carl zeus lens built in so it takes pretty nice pics.

Yeah man it seems you've got technique and talent for it man Keep it up. And I'd say MOD THE G! first before the camera :P esspecially intake at the least. More HP More MPG, so why the hell not?

yeah.. i've modded my G over the past year (that's how long i've had it). But i've recently been bit by the track bug (thanks to THX - Clint and others), and looking to get Stillen sways and a new set of wheels (with either SO3's or RA1's) for track days..

so we will see...

Thanks again!

Thank you!! Throughout the day I kept thinking to myself

"what the heck do these people do, to afford all this racing equipment? and what can I do to make that much money.. Shoot.. I wanna spend my weekends tracking a Porsche, Ferrari or the Zonda.."

oh well, I guess i'll just have to wait for the lottery..

btw, I hope yall ready for the next track event on July 21 @ California Speedway. We'll be running the same ROVAL setup as those bad boys! I'll be posting details soon.

Hope to see you 'driving' this time Mike!

and of course im ready for the next event.. I just have to get my brake pads changed for next time , and I'm already on the hunt for track wheels & tires..

also, I did drive at the Spring Mountain event.. I was in the same group as Jeff (1SUPERG) and Jay from S2000 group... I just wasn't as fast cause of my stock pads..

See, this is meee on the track...


anyway, im looking forward to more track events..

Doh! hehe ... it was late (or actually early). I had just gotten home from a ridiculously late shift. :O

Ma bad! I do remember you there, but why do I keep forgetting you also 'tracked' with us at Spring Mountain! Grrr ... getting old I guess.

Well, see you at Cali then. Let me know if you have any questions w. the car.

haha.. either that or all those Long Island Ice Tea's is still circulating in your system. Or the brisk 3 mile walk at 1 am from "that one place" has jogged your memory.. good times...

oh, yeah, and I also remember you backing me up when we almost threw down with those guys... I bet you didn't remember that...
