Wasn't able to go, damn. ill def go next time.

Some C&C on the photo. It looks nicely framed and sharp as, nice colours and processing too. But of all places in norwest why'd you pick the most boring car park to take a pic? Personally I wouldn't want a shop like supercheap in the background of a photo. Background looks fakely blurred, stop signs are oof but some buildings further behind it are sharper. Can't wait to see the other pics though.

yeh that was editted at about 4am last night in a few mins, where I was in cbf mode. I did soften the background lazily with one quick stroke to refocus on the cars a bit. Guess my aperture setting was too small.

P.S I just woke up.

Thanks for the drive of your car Rotary. As we've both mentioned numerous times tonight, it's interesting driving each others' cars, what with one of us going power and the other going suspension. We'll have to try the timing advance and gearbox oil change when I get back from Brissie

Should make for an interesting next track day. Wouldn't mind doing a speed of the streets day, if you can make any. might have to think up a few more power mods by then

Problem with those is that they're untimed. Unless of course Alex tags along and can be our timekeeper :wink:

I can probably do one in April if one gets organised, but the next club day is at the start of May anyway, so may as well just wait for that.

I can just see alex with like 50 stop watches around her neck trying to find the right one before marcus goes past.

Hmm how much are transponder systems?

Replace watches with mobile phones and that's pretty much what happened at the last speed off the streets day in December

From Tom:

Hey guys it was great meeting you all yesterday! Here are the better shots that I've picked out. Sorry about the grain on the moving shots - was my first time doing them so I'm still learning on what settings work in what conditions.

@ Josh, I do have a compilation of your "roundabout" shots but won't post them up public in case... you can find my contacts off Felix

Thanks guys, may or may not see you all again on Friday with my license and SRI

(P.S. +1 on MXHVN's lack of wash and wax

)
