I know I am hard on myself, but I am still not happy with the results I was getting with my camera. I honestly think there is something wrong with it. My images weren't getting the exposure I wanted. I even compared all my settings on my camera with Erich's, there were virtually the same, and his exposure was much better than mine. I don't know.... maybe my camera has seen better days, I have had it for 8 years know and GOD only knows how many frames I have shot with it..... 50,000 to 100,000 maybe, if I had to guess. I think it is time to step up to some new equipment.

I am just rantinig.........Thanks for the continued comments, I do appreciate it.

Jay

WOW!!!

Amazing pics Jay! It looks like the event was a HUGE success.

I wish I was in a better position to make the trek to the event. Perhaps next year we can look at a meet on the West Coast?

Sounds like everyone had a great time. Any surprises? Did anyone break anything significant? Did ANYONE come out w/ an MIP 4wd RC10?

Our local track is getting ready for Fall racing season, and the Vintage class will be making a comeback. I can't wait.


Congrats to all the participants and Erich for getting this thing together.

The best was when his Thundershot (I think that's what car it was) had a huge cloud of smoke coming out behind it. I wish I had my camera on me when that happened, that was awesome!

I was curious what the final tally was for what showed up?
Do we have a total count:

RC10:
10T:
Losi Buggy:
Losi Truck:
Traxxas:
Tamiya:

Etc?
