the group shot that guy had in mind was probably a good idea for about 100 cars... but for 250ish+... took waaayyyyy too long to get everyone in and out. we need to get back to the dam photo taken buy a damn photographer lol

Dustin@Z1 05-25-2010 04:23 PM

What is odd is that later that day, we took the 370Z and my Z32 down to the dam and there was a small group doing pics with some cars where we would have normally done the photos. ?????

BTW...Patrick. You should have gotten the Frontier in the photo shoot. There was a Lotus for crying out loud. The truck would have been a better fit!

^^^ that was just the tip of the iceberg that is zdayz

Nice pic. I think I'll grab that. :tiphat:

I left my car with the keys in it for 4 hours that afternoon. I'm glad it showed up in some pics and not on the Dragon.

Someone told me you was running pretty good, but those brakes where smoking at the end of the run.

Yeap, I stayed in the shade watching the "gago Fck" for hours, then when they was almost almost finish I pull my car on the last road close to the exit. I was out of there in no time when they finish.

Well, I did use the photoshoot as an opportunity to grab a prime parking spot at the grill. :D

Are you on a work computer, many offices block image hosting sites.

jrb 05-26-2010 09:26 AM

ive got lsd. im just running yoko s.drives with eibach springs. with my track time, im pushing my g to the edge of what it is right now. my biggest problem at the moment is im overcoming the springs so coils will be my next big mod.

So for you guys who were there and saw Mike's (the powdercoater) car with the stillen front fascia, what did you guys think of it? Better in person or in pics?

It looks pretty sweet in person! I'd say it looks better in person than in pics.. kind of like the 370 itself.

agreed it looks 10x better! i wasnt totally sold on the pics but once i saw it, just whoa. that opening is a monster and will be great for cooling.

a lot of blame should be placed on the crappy photog and some of the people organizing. the started lining up cars from the middle out and kept having to create tunnels to fit more cars. i think with better organization, it would have taken half the time. i actually jumped in and organized the line of decal cars on the hill to keep them from screwing up my friends cars. again if i hadnt kept getting interrupted, it would have been way easier.

hahaha they weren't smoking but they are gone that's for sure. i was getting massive pedal vibe and hardly any braking force by the time i got to FVR on the way in. my tires are shot, pads are gone and my rotors are cooked after spending 2.5 days on those roads, a good 25% of the time sideways :driving: <-- very good impression of me friday and saturday... sunday i chased bryan down 28 back to anderson, that was a lot of fun ;)

m4a1mustang 05-26-2010 01:01 PM

Haha! Hoser, Rick, Mustang, and Topless all made it to Killboy's highlights page: killboy.com photos - The Original Photographer from Hwy US129 Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap

I bent over to wash my rims and the whole place started spinning so I sat down.
