i love your blog, i always find myself reading it, what camera do you use?

Most pics are collected from all over the net.

But when I attend an event, I use all different cameras

When I was in Japan before I had a Pentax Ist D digital SLR
Light weight but photo quality is not the best and CCD cleaning is bad.

My friend has a Nikon 200D I borrow.
Super Auto Bacs Chiba pics

Another Friend has a Pentax Digi SLR.
Tsukuba Action Shots.

Another firend is a profesional with Canon D1. Pics from these camera's are just great. But Lens is just as important. They make you look good, but you still need to compose the picture.

But for a blog you don't need anything like that

Because of small size, most look good, even if they are poor quality.
For top quality digital - Professional quality. Canon D5 or D1
My plan was always to buy another one "Canon" but these days cash is tight.

Russ, do you know if RE A's next car (rumors of the carbon bodied, 20b twin turbo) will be that car? or will this be a another super greddy show car?

I would love to see RE A. step it up again in time attack. They've seem kind of quiet for a while now.

pictures people! :D

I have some info on my blog,

They are building a NEW one for TAS from a Left hand drive car.
It's nearing completion with pics updated on Ama-san's Diary.

I dont know for sure whether this one will be the same car. But it seems unlikely at theis stage that the TAS car will have a full carbon body but it will have many carbon panels.

20b - Twin Turbo, Wierd Sedan style rear, Front is like a AC897 with different light setup. Not Porsche style. Front Fenders are similar to the new drift car that wasn't used this year. But rears are different.

Russ.

Ok sorry for the delay. I finally got around to loading the past 3 weeks pics from my camera to photobucket to the club now.
Here are the shots I got at The Time attack before I left my camera on in my pocket like a true idiot and ran out of battery.
here ya go!

First shot is Mr. Uehara of Wise One auto with Mr. Kagotani of Garage Kagotani.
We run support and the pits for Kagotani at events and this was one week before the time attack and we pulled the head off of his R34 Time attack car for a check which turned out to show us the head was blown and had already been milled down to much to be able to do it again so the car was doomed to not make it to this years Time Attack:sadwavey:

Ok now for what I got at the time attack.

Panspeed was the first car I shot so here are the shots of the Panspeed FD which set the fastest FR record time not only for this year but overall.

Do you think its the same cosmo? Love the sound of the one in the video.

Anyone know for sure when the next event like this is on?

Curcuit Theory: Few days ago I was looking for a place to tune my car, did mr kagotani in that picture use himself as his company mascot? I remember some wierd symbol looked like a japanese rapper, then picture of the boss, i think it was him.
jya

haha yes Mr. Kagotani's logo is him smiling with sunglasses. lol
you have good eyes!

Did you get that silver FD? Never heard back about you getting a car? What did you get? Why does it need a tune?:)

did I post that??? hahaha well I tuned my car last week on the toll way and some lower roads. It needed a new tune since I pulled out my Apexi ECV(exhaust Control Valve) that was 70mm. Prior to that i had tuned it with my new(used) Knight Sports Hi flow turbo and AP engineering power FC. The car is at about 330 rwhp now where as with the ecv in it was considerably less and I was not getting full boost until about 5000rpm. Now I have full boost at 3,700rpm but then ofcourse had boost spiking issues to I had to work some magic with the wastegate actuator although I did not need to actually port the holes so that was a relief. just had to give the flapper some more space to open up in.

I dont think I have ever mentioned looking for or buying a silver or any fd so that would be a, No I did not get that silver FD. I have had a matte grey FC for the past 1 and a half the one in my profile pics.

oops that went way off topic.

On topic: Revspeed time attack was great fun!

Circuit Theory - is that you in the picture in the engine bay.

lol i was talking to Radigash. He was looking at buying a silver FD a few weeks back.

Thanks for the pics dude...

Russ.

i love the Pan speed car, the body looks really nice, with aggressive lines but doesnt look like a space ship.
