I got a few of that thing. What motor is that? Looked pretty small with a VERY large turbo on it. I also got a few of some all out Turbo Stang that couldn't hook

and that red camaro.

Nice shots bro

I also didn't know about the 1/xx mph rule of thumb. Good stuff.

I really think it was the shutter priority mode that was causing the over exposure. A lot has to do with the metering, and you can also tell the camera to underexpose and over expose when in any of the priority modes.

that focus is pretty tight, and the bitch gets down to.

Yeah, I tested it out today, and sure enough, if I knock it down a stop or two on the f/stop, it comes out a bit better.

Damn, I spy Andy, Colt, Brett, Josh, Todd LOL.

Wish I came home for this.

1/30 may be slow enough to get a rotation out of the wheels, but its probably too slow to get a crisp shot in a moving car.

I'd suggest picking up a ND filter, maybe a 2x or 4x. Then go out and play with it.

Going to get a whole set of Filters for the Lens. Just at 30ish dollars a piece I gotta wait till my next paycheck!

More, I didn't bother to edit them. More or less just to get them up for some people.

I may get around to getting a project thread put together on it, but suffice to say it's a "big block" VW-style all-billet one-off boxer. Designed, machined, and built in house at our shop.

I'm just happy I got tire wrinkle in my shots.

I saw that thing coming to the line, and I was like "Man, that's a tiny little motor".

**power2weight** · 04-02-2010 08:19 AM

On our second full powered 1/8 mile pass we ran in the 4 fifty's. We added some injector capacity and will be back at heads up madness is this weekend.
