I can see you on the side juggling both Cameras and Video aswell but i didn't want to bother you a true test of your photography skillz...I am laughing my ass off right now as i remembered you were trying to figure out how to take a picture of the speedometer with that HUGE lens at XXX digit speeds

This was classic and the best interpretation of Wind Breaker

I thought at first he didn't want to let us pass or he's committing suicide but after awhile we all figured it out

LOL

Even on MDM on the traction control kicked in off the line. (Gregg wanted a standing start) And I hit the damn rev limiter in second like a dumb ass. Can;t win 'em all right. But the run was great man, no excuses. I was gaining on him in the end though, he only got me by 3/4 of a car at the line. Needless to say, I almost made a dent on the floor board from stomping on the gas so hard LOL.

I really wanted to try one of the P cars from a rolling start, but they were racing each other like Pit Bulls, it was sick!!!!!!!!! The black Techart 997T was monster, He flew by me at the finish line and it sounded like a damn misile.

Now let me go practice on my damn starts
