My TII on the Dragon (US129) and MISC from DGRR '09

US129photos.com took these shots of me cruising through the Tail of the Dragon @ Deal's Gap Rotary Rally this past weekend. I ordered a huge *** print of the first one and cannot wait to get it in the mail for my wall. It's nice to see my car behind another persons camera as it seems I'm the only one to take shots of it. lol.





and here some of my personal shots from the event. I would post these in the Audio/Visual section but I like the responses and feedback I get from my fellow 2nd gen 'ers. So if its okay... can we leave them in here?

Roof Shot:


Classicauto's TII:




Nice Silver RX-8:


Sexy Blue RX-8:


Gorgeous Blue FD:


Clean turbo 1st gen:


Jeremy's 99spec replica FD:

Some 1st gens @ the Resort:


TitaniumTT's FC... yeah this **** is WAY cleaner than the pics in his thread. It is unbelievable. Little meticulous details make you 2nd look. Unreal.


Classicauto and me gassing up before we head out to the dragon:


Zonblitz's Modified featured FD:


Group shot:


PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE WITH MY PICTURES STILL IN THE QUOTATIONS! This runs up my bandwidth on photobucket more than I do so myself already. A simple explanation of a picture if you like it will do. haha. But yeah, if you post or use them somewhere else please give me credit. I have aspirations to quit my day job one day and shoot as a career so please give me credit for my pics if you use them. Thanks and comments and critiques if you are nice about it!

Gear:

Nikon D80
Nikon MB-D80 battery grip
Nikon 18-200mm VR
Nikon 10.5mm fisheye
Nikon 50mm f/1.8D
Nikon SB-600 flash
Velbon carbon fiber tripod

Thanks guys... My inter-cooler is the GReddy 2-row kit for the FC. Tho... the majority of the core is underneath the bumper. Thanks again for the compliments. I am still editing a million more pictures.

Awesome shots, man. I'm still kicking myself for not checking the dates, I so could have taken a detour on my way home from Texas on the 17th.

Yeah! And it's fast too! We cruised it around a bit after fixing some random fluke with the fuel system.

+1 I had no idea. Pic's look great man, don't you just love the 10.5? You don't even have to work, it just automatically takes good photos.

Wish I could have gone to the DGRR, I will one of these years.....
