Nope, still doing 24hr of Le Mans, but halfway done!!! :D

And nice pic Rocko! But I think it would look better if It maybe had higher aperture and a little more blur, or some filters.

Hey Jav thanks for the ticket. First try got my favorite of the bunch, the pug c60!

Takes some getting used to; the turbo kicks the back end out so easily in slow corners. You really have to keep a decent speed through turns to keep it straight.

I'd suggest learning to get into the habit of short shifting. Remember, it's only 483 HP.

I think that we'll postpone the season start so that we have time to gather signups for LMP2.
Will update the OP tonight.

I got a 1:46.5 with mine, I love this track though.

That's pretty quick rb! I'm not used to the track yet but I don't think I will get down that low. Still working on setup though.

Thanks! Whats aperture? You should consider joining photomode contests. This week it's a H2H

Aperture is basically brightness, via Exposure.

And I don't think I have the talent. But I'll try.

I had low exposure due to the nature of the contest, Black vs White.
And don't worry about skill because some people aren't too great either

Oh. It's pretty good anyways. Maybe try another pose on the same location.

And thanks, I guess..
 
I'm so torn! The Jag is more fun than I'd expected, and the Ford is amazing, too. If you'd allow three of the same car I would offer to team up with FH.

But LMP2 seems REALLY fun, too, once the car is tamed. I think really I'd like to fit in with people of similar skill ultimately, which may point to GT for me. I don't know, honestly!

And picture taking is easier than it seems. I just take advantage of the built in things that make good action pics; max exposure time, exposure type (can't remember what it's called) 3, And just play with angles. I get those "stretch the car" shots by getting in close. The camera lens naturally starts distorting the image. Reminds me of top gear shots!

No problems man! any time! Just like Gatrs said, get some seat time with it because the torque at low speed is brutal and can kick the tail out in a hurry! But once you get the feel for them they are a sweet sweet thing to drive!

Oh and Gatr, if needed I'm willing to step down to LMP2.
 
Are we having a race tomorrow night? Where?

And I have to defend my last year's win at Daytona Road Course. :sly:

And the Jag looks ugly to me from the front. :yuck:
 
You only got that win because the F1 qualified and started the race on racing hards, don't believe me? Watch the replay.

Aperture is what decides how far into the background/foreground the focus will go, for example:
A low aperture and focusing on the car will keep mainly only the car in focus, the background will easily become fuzzy, and vice versa.

Also, when you zoom out, the camera naturally gives a fish-eye lens effect. The more you zoom, the less the effect is shown.

Take it easy there. :sly:

You think I haven't improved?
