Yeah that event ruled so fucking hard.

Here are some pics I took. I wish I could have gotten some pics of the first heat, but well I had to drive then ☹

( props to Paulo for his help )

Slow exposure FTW. Very cool shots. Cars looking like they’re moving \> freezing the action so they all look parked.

Marnie, were you running a rear sway bar, or just the change in springs?

And no one mentioned it yet, so I’ll say congrats to Farmer Quinn for putting down some good times in the FMod!

Sorry, all blurry. I need a lot of practice :tif:

Maybe next event my work assignment can be to take pics instead of running cones! :tup:

Oh I think i’m going to go to the prosolo event and just shoot all day!

I have had the 22mm ST rear bar since fall of '06, that’s about the only thing on my car that HASN’T changed since then. 😃

is that at the exit of the ‘p’? Those were a couple of really nice turns there.

It was nice to be on tires that I could rely on again, though I may need a little adjusting seeing I totaled 24 cones on the day.

Yeah it was the exit. It was hard to take the time I wanted to get the pics as I couldn’t touch my camera till the car had entered and left my work station :shrug:

Hahaha, I heard Marnie was a bit of a drift queen coming through the P at least once… scared the bejeebers out of a few course workers 😉

If you want to be the official photographer of WNY-SCCA, then you got it. We can find you some hosting space if you need it, and you have to get pics of as many cars as possible, and post them up in a timely manor.

Were you shooting handheld? Try a monopod so you can pan smoothly without getting any up and down movement from hand shake.

You must have talked to Chris Morton :ohnoes: I was trying a new setup, it’s kinda loose… I was getting used to it by the end of the day, though.

Now that I realize what you were driving, and that it wasn’t a CRX… in the most friendly way possible… I think saying “you were getting loose” is quite an understatement 😃

:newman:What are you talking about, it was totally fine. :biglaugh: Seriously, I think it will be fast if I can figure out how to drive it (ha). And I’m keeping the CRX in my signature until I get a better action shot of the Civic 🙂

Marnie - you’ll be fast if you drive the same car for more than a couple of events.
