hey thanks for that. im far from mag status but im actually trying to learn and get better at taking pictures as a hobby. matt showed me some new techniques the night of gene's photoshoot. very interesting stuff. very far from point and click.

i started taking pictures of RC drift cars and just recently started taking pics of real cars.

i have an account with pics ive taken.

the best looking red FD I've seen. Congrats!

I have the same side skirts.... they are subtle and follow the lines of the FD nicely.
