The first pic i posted (smokey one) that guy was drifting every corner...he spun out a few times too...almost collected some cars....

thanks for the awesome pics guys that last run before i left, my tires and brakes were getting sloppy, couldnt push it as hard as the previous run time for BBK and some ADVAN AD07's? xD

yea i could smell your brakes starting to burn up lol. i definitely want to do one run this summer.

Ok, we really need to have a Camry track day......

:clap:

You haven't seen me out there with my little piggy... talk about being laughed at. :lol:

(otherwise mechanically stock gen 8 rolla with just rims, spring & strut)

Yea clockwise, i think it's easier and safer coming off the track on the straighway, instead of cuttin across the corner. more room too.

I have a Canon SX5. I borrowed my dad's tripod for the day so I could do full Manual settings to get all the "action" of the turns and stuff without being blurry..... Some of them were taken with my little sony point and shoot because I was tired of standing around with the tripod and other set up... You can tell the difference for sure because the ones with the sony are further away than the ones with the canon haha the Canon has 15x zoom!


I am going to bring them both on Saturday to the east end meet in hopes of good a) turn out and b) good weather!!

20+ degrees saturday

cutipie... I think you meant S5 IS which is the same camera I have, I can get it to take great pics... use Program instead of Manual, works better for me.. pics at 100-200 ISO are great.

I wonder whose 86 that was, I think it's someone from Dorikaze.

yep, that's what I meant... I sell them, I just don't remember the names lol, we actually don't have that one anymore, we have the S10 instead, 20x zoom instead of 15... it's an awesome camera, most of the time I just leave it in Auto... I want a XSI but I need the $$ first, even with the discount it's still 600+ bucks...

The ISO on those was i think 400 I don't remember, I kept playing around with the settings, I have only had it since June of last year and I haven't had the time/chance to play with the manuals. I had it in TV for a portion of the time too... Learned all the tricks in Photo class!

looks like everyone had a good time

no, the 86 wasnt me, im the grey camry, but i will tell you that thing (86) is loud, the only other car out there that day that was louder was a full track tuned 350z... i was standing next the track marshals when they gave the Z the green to go and our ears were ringing after he took off
