figured I'd show you guys the pix of my S4....

I know the BG sucks, but it's just a parking lot at a High School, so.....

Very nice.

What body did you get?

[kujo]

that's the new Canon 5D

[Audihead]

What background? I didn't see any background.:D Great shots as usual, you're a talent with the shutter.

[Benman]

Exceptionally CLEAN pics Kujo. Very, very nice. Now drive down to Murrieta to take some pics of MY Beast!:D :thumb:

Ben:addict: :rs6kiss:

Great pix Kujo ! I like your custom S4 front grille and your smoke headlamps. :s4addict:

[Bauer]

Kujo,

Those are some sweet shots..... what are you doing next Tuesday?? Want to do me / STaSIS a favor:D ?

We will be going to Buttonwillow for the Time Attack and to have some pictures of the quality you are producing would be great. I am bringing my 01.5 S4 and STaSIS is bringing their new B6 Cossie powered race car to compete.

Please let me know your thougts on the subject.

[kujo]

Bauer,

Damn man....
I would do that in a Heart Beat !!!

But, weekdays are hard for me.

It's not easy to take days off at work.

Our TV show has a distinct look and they don't like it very much, when the Camera Operator leaves and needs to be replaced.

If this was a weekend day, I'd be out there will Bells on.......

I'll kind of see what I can do, but most likely won't be able to do it.

I'll need to take some days off in the next month to accompany my wife to the baby doctor, so......

These are times I wished I wasn't working full time on a series..... :(

If you guys just want shots of the cars, we can try to work that out for weekend sometime.

OR, the week of Thanksgiving, I'll have the whole week off.

I was planning on taking my Kart out to Willow Springs 2-3 days that week.

So, for still shots of the cars, with the track in the BG, we could do it then.....

let me know about that.

Kurt

Kurt,

I totally understand.. it is last minute. Also, congrats on the new addition on the way, that is exciting news.

I assume that you will not be coming to the ACNA event at Sears this week? As for Willow Springs.... that is a fun course.

I will talk with Paul on Thursday about maybe trying to set something up in the future... I really do appreciate you offering, I know how hard it can be to work the time off.

Ben

[RS4Ever]

saw them on AW.

as always.. very nice!

I love the new D5. What do you think of that body?

[kujo]

thanks Benman...
it's cool. it's soooo new.
just 7 weeks along now and we'll find out on Friday if it's more than one...
We we're seeing a specialist and knew this month that she'd drop two eggs, so there's a chance... :D
Hope that ain't too much info....

yeah, I wished that Stasis thing at Willow wasn't a weekday.....

Stur..
The body is really well made.
Not as ruged at the 1 series bodies, but much more ruged than the 10/20D's.

I've owned Eos1 bodies since the origianl one back in 1991.
Eos 1, 1N 1nRS, 1D, 1DmkII's and now the 5D.

It's a great all around camera.
Full Frame is sooo nice, but my mkII's will do all my action work, as the 5D's 3fps is just too slow.
And the AF isn't quite as good as the 1 series bodies, so....

But overall, the $3300 usd that it cost, is soooo worth it.

what kinda rims do you got? The inside of it looks a little bit like my sportec rims :)
Btw how much bhp did you improve with your upgrades?

[kujo]

those are the Neuspeed RS10's.
19x8.5"(20 lbs)
Look very much like the Sportec's but are a bit lighter.

I haven't dyno'd at all yet, so I'm not sure what type of bhp it's putting to the ground.

One of these days I'll get it on the dyno.

I think the only big differents is how long the spokes are.. The sportecs are wider to the outside becaus you have that chrome side around your rim. (but sportec has that also in some kinda way)

Btw you have different collars of the sportec rims so thats not the differents I think ;)
