Nopi was fun. I got to drive 2 350z and 2 STIs at the BFG challenge. It was a blast, the instructor guy I got was cool as shit. I told him ive autoxd before and taken classes, he said "i will let you push it more" YAY! He was suppose to upshift in the auto 350 when comming out of corners because you werent suppose to slide, with me he downshifted and let me get the ass out. w00t. The 350 with the BFGs PWNED the potenza s03s! I couldnt believe it, brock brainwashed me into thinking those were the best! haha.

One STI was on yokohama something expensive. The BFGs were better on that car too. I didnt know how it would handle, so I anticipated it doing both oversteer and understeer, I got the ass out a bit through some gravel too! It was fun. The different brands of tires had the same air pressure as the BFGs too, i was told.

The signal drifters were incredible. I got tire dust all over my face! They made it look so easy. CHUNKY Bai sat on the door, and drifted donuts with one leg and one arm! sweet!

I used my old ass cannon from the 70s with a wide angle vivitar series 1 lense. All of them are kinda overexposed. oh well, came out better than I thought. :wink: I have more, but I didnt finish the roll because I got a migrane and Had to leave. I didnt get any drifting either, because i didnt bring my zoom lense. I should have taken more. Oh well.

Enjoy

You can do it with photoshop, it took me like 2 hours to get it done.

What do you mean photoshop? Isn't it just HTML or whatever?

BTW, I really like this car. 8)

Its just html, but ps has something that does it automaticaly. I had to resize all the pics and save them, with an action, so I dont have to do it every time. Then i dump them in a folder. After that, I made photoshop create a web album. Finally I uploaded it onto my server.

yeah action is a life saver, I just converted 160 pics from tiff to jpg and resized them and put them on my website...took about 15 minutes instead of 3 hours. Now i need to figure out how th ehell to use adobe premiere or however u spell it.

The new Jetta GLI looks SO GOOD. Especially in red. Man, I wish my car had come in red.

Oh, well, the 20th Anniversary and 337 are still better :)

nope.


muahahahaha.

And about that IC mounting.. it's actually the best way IMO... but not the easiest. Air flows up through the bumper then out the hood.

It was actually my first auto-x experience :). I am kinda glad becuase now I feel alot better at being a newb at my first auto-x, I think I'll do fine! Hey, when you get your video on the website post it up so we can all watch it :D. I think I actually drove the RSX-S pretty decently.

The 350Z, well, I understeered during the second run and backed off a lil the rest of the run :/. I felt kinda dumb - if I understeered is that the cars fault or did I come in too fast? Being the event that it was, I couldn't correct it with the throttle. I was afraid I had messed up and looked stupid so I was a little nervous the rest of the run, especially since my instructor was a freakin awesome guy. He was old and was probably really experienced and I was worried about making a good impression :oops:
