The Rice


The "little bit of everything in one picture" - including a riced Lincoln, cheaper gas, a gas guzzling SUV and an F-Body bearing down on me in the rear view mirror...


The Nice


The movie - shot one handed as I was driving..

RC is a kitty killer too.

For some reason I don't like the look of that Lambo. :fadein: The pics do look very sharp though. What camera are you using?

Shaky? LOL I'll show you shakey camera work...



BTW, in the first posted clip (which was the second filmed)I am holding the camera in my right hand, and letting go the wheel and shifting with my left hand while bracing the wheel with ny clutch leg as I shift...

The second posted clip (the first filmed) I just had to ditch the camera and shift before I blew up the engine..

The one stoplight we did line up at I was surprised how easily the Z toasted the Diablo. He had paper plates so might n o be comfortable with the Lambo - but it really wasn't as strong off the line as I thought it would be.

I was using Kodak DX6490
