QJS, your car is soooo hot. Nice!

A tip though, your Digital Rebel photos are terrible. I think you are missing IS

That car should have better pixs that that! Anyway, hope that helps. Maybe to to full Auto, and it might also be the lens.

Don't know if you are interested, since you have nice stuff, but Canon is out with their new Canon EOS 5D Mark II and it's hot. It even has video, full frame, and even in Auto the pix are amazing!

If you want some super tips on how to use the Canon, without racking your brain check out this forum... POTN

The amature stuff posted there, with lots of lens tips etc are in my opinion many times better than a lot of pro's that do photography for a living.

Hope that helps... as for the car.... Just when I thought the 1 was my dreams, you have to post that! OM....g...

Thanx bruv, the info u gave will help alot. Cheers

I used the Canon EOS 400D i think or without the D, dont remember. The problem is, 1 im a novice photographer and hopefully be better after the links u gave me. 2, it was humid and the lens gets foggy. 3, i dont have steady hands. Need a tripod. Im gonna check out the new EOS and probably buy it, heard lots of good stuff about it.

To be honest, im more excited for the 1er than what i have at the moment. Not saying its a bad car, its amazing in everything, its mind blowing, and its true, '' it corners faster than electricity '' :P

But the 1er will be more fun cuz i like going sideways :thumbup:

I am not babying the car, 4 times WOT ( rolling 40km/h, 2nd gear till 4th changing on 5K ), and most of the time spirited driving. Already half way to break-in period. I dont think anyone can wait till break in period, cuz it encourages u to push it :biggrin:

EspressoBoy · 10-22-2008, 01:47 PM

It looked like to me the Image Stabilization is OFF. Could be fog too I guess. Even my cheap Point and Shoot can do better than that. I have been putting off getting an EOS myself for years (Since 10D). I know lots about them though. I can afford it but it's the time. So I stick to higher end P&S. The latest Canon P&S is also amazing. IS (Image Stabilization) feature on any camera these days is a must. You are not the only one with pictures like this. I have lots like that, from my older P&S with indoor lighting and no IS

yes i have, it got the fastest trap speed in the world i think, without launch control. 1/4 mile in 11.4@130mph. Plus, he chose the slippery part of the track just in case shit dont happen.

Im waiting for his brother to send me the vids.

Bahraini135 · 10-22-2008, 04:18 PM

130mph makes me think it's not stock

It is stock, altho its hard to believe cuz u know them 2 brothers dont keep any of their cars stock. But its true, its all stock baby.

QJS · 10-22-2008, 04:28 PM

Most stock GTR's got 130mph trap speed but they wer all dun using LC.

I seriously think that the VVIP edition has more boost than the normal ones.

Bahraini135 · 10-22-2008, 04:59 PM

only one way to find out, when is the next T&T?

i have no idea, i dont follow it up.

Bahraini135 · 10-22-2008, 05:07 PM

will be cooler by then, would be interesting seeing another 130mph run by another GTR, perhaps a new white one

:P

when it gets cooler ill def take her and test her out, of course without LC. It will be more challenging.

edit::

but that would be just once, cuz im not into the 1/4 times anymore after selling Endless. I want to drive it on the F1 track, see if it can take the curves like a house fly.

Bahraini135 · 10-22-2008, 05:18 PM

btw... his run was with LC, at least this is what Ahmed told me, coz he was explaining that he got some wheel spin with it

Yeah he did use LC on the other run, thats what A'amer told me. Hmm, then i think i got mixed up with the other run that was without LC. So what was his time without it? any idea

QJS · 10-24-2008, 02:54 PM
