Default New in Trinity

Hey everyone!


A little about me, my name is Enrique and I just moved to the Trinity/NPR area. I'm originally from south FL but due to my job its my first time back in the state in 8 years. I drove a '13 FR-S and due to an expanding family I traded in for a 4-door family sedan, a '15 Evo X. The Evo forum is practically dead and I wanted something more local so I'm glad I found you guys.

On my off time I do a lot of photography. I've been published by Toyota Motor Corp./Scion and other entities in the past. I love doing event coverage and worked as official media for Gumball NY, Broke East NE, ect. What I'm trying to get at is I love taking pics but I don't know where the meets are at. I love getting out there so if anyone can point me in the right direction that would be awesome! See you guys on the forum.

You can check out some of my work on my FLICKR.

My FR-S






And the Evo X

WOW! you have 38 views of your post already! I don't doubt that dual members
of Tampa Racing and some other site are telling you where meets are that you can attend.
.....and some of them are bad mouthing Tampa Racing to encourage to go to their site. LOL
They would do better to promote their own site from their own site.

If you want to find out where meets are, click here:

some days have over 40 events listed from all over.

I like it that you have several publishing credits to your name.
Tampa Racing has a very humble event coverage section:
Event Coverage

Feel free to post any event coverage there. Hundreds of people view the
forums of Tampa Racing every night. I did not make that up. lol
There are 499 on line as I write this. That can be verified by going here
to see the number on line at any given time.
https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/forum.php

It's about 4 pages down underneath the Tampa racing shop forums.

I like it that you have such attention to detail and clarity in your photographs. Some examples
are the rivets that are visible in the radiator at broke.east and the wrinkles in the foil of
a different car's air intakes. The helicopter interior detail shots are amazing considering that
'copters are usually shaking all over the place.

I like it that you folks held meets when the snow was
piled higher than the cars. You certainly captured the detail of the road spatter of a car meet die-hard.
Some meets down here sometimes have thinner crowds when it rains heavy.

If you like submitting your photography work to magazines, you will love Simply Clean in November.
2,000 cars.......... Keep checking for other meets and introduce yourself around until then.

Tampa racing has over two pages of car events when you scroll to the bottom here:

Thank you for the compliments! So far I haven't seen or heard anything negative about TR. I love cars and meeting new car people. I'll take a look a the events and see if there are any bigger meets worth attending.
