Thanks a lot. The SS 454 Chevelle is one of my favorite cars of all time next to the 1969 Yenko Camaro. I appreciate the feedback.

 

[Speed Racer 12]

Wow so it has been a while since I have updated my gallery. I finally got my lazy self going and got some more pictures. This time I took some pictures of my newly bought Viper GTS. This thing is fast, and it goes around corners like it is on rails. Here are a few pictures.





Let me know what you guys think.

The third red Chevelle in post 26 is wicked awesome, worthy for a calendar cover for sure. Although if I had taken it I would have cut off the last 1/3 of the car.

You're getting great with Picasa.

 

[Speed Racer 12]

So what do you guys think of the Viper pics?

 

[chocobo]

Good Viper pics. I like the 4th 👍

 

[Speed Racer 12]

chocobo- thanks for the words of praise, I have been trying hard.

kenny- Picasa is pretty cool. I mostly just use it to brighten up a picture or sharpen it a little. It's a handly little tool.

 

[Speed Racer 12]

Ok everybody, it's update time. I hope y'all like Karmann-Ghias. I sure do, that is why I own one.





Tell me what you guys think.

 

[pain killer]

the last 2 are my favorites. the car looks very good there.

 

[vr6gti72]

Not bad at all....thats the same color I have, it reacts suprisingly well in PS...Ive got a few I have put in my gallery and even more I havent touched up yet.

Good stuff

 

[Krame]

Very nice.👍 I like the first and the last row of pics. The car looks pretty smooth. Stop by my galelry sometime when you get the chance to check out my latest update.

 

[Speed Racer 12]

Thanks for the feedback you guys. Maybe if I get some pictures of my real Karmann-Ghia, I'll post them.

 

[Speed Racer 12]

Sooo, I got kinda bored so I took a pictures of my VW for your viewing pleasure.



It is kind of a large image so you might want to resize it to look at it better.

Looking good without bumpers, it keeps the lines clear. Doing all the work by yourself? The Ghia is beautiful, as is your Ghia update. I especially like the PhotoTravel shots. And the yellow fits to the warm light very good. 👍

Prost!

 

[Speed Racer 12]

Thanks bjc for your praise on the photomode pictures. As for the real car, yes, I am doing all the work myself. Next on the list is a new passenger floor pan, then a seat for the driver side to get closer to completing the interior.

Nice job man.Pics look good.👍

 

[kennythebomb]

Lets see you drift that VW in real life now

Nice pics.

 

[Speed Racer 12]

I took a few pictures last night so I decided I would share with the rest of the group. Ladies, say hello to my Volvo 240 GLT.





I don't know why but this car was really hard to drift. Oh well, I guess it was just a bad setup. Anyways, tell me what you guys think.

 

[Appie]

the RS6 is nice

 

[kennythebomb]

I really like #6, and #4. #4 is close to an angle I will be putting in my gallery in a couple days.

 

[Boogieman]

well . . i guess you know which update i like . . . . . and come on . . it's so easy to drift with the brick . .

 

[Speed Racer 12]

well . . i guess you know which update i like . . . . . and come on . . it's so easy to drift with the brick . .

It had a bad tendancy to understeer. Whenever it finally got sideways, it was nice and controllable.

 

[Speed Racer 12]

I don't know if you're ready for it but you guys are so special, I'm gonna give you an update anyways.

The MG TF160







Enjoy!

 

[Perfect Balance]

Cool update, I like the first pic.

 

[TheGuitarGuy]

Very cool! I like the cockpit shot and the backfire shot...excellent stuff.

Hey give my Gallery a look if you get a chance.

 

[Appie]

nice MG pics

#4 and 6 are my favorite

 

[Speed Racer 12]

I agree, #6 is one of my favorites too. That was just a good picture.

 

[pain killer]

i would say hi to the volvo but all i see is a bunch of white squares with a red x in them. anyway the mg update is great. i never knew that car could look so good. my favorite is the 4th one.

 

[Speed Racer 12]

Thanks Pain Killer, I dont know why the Volvo pics did that but oh well. I also agree with you in thinking the MG would be visually appealing, but that green color works. I think the red brake calipers spice it up a little too.

 

[Rohrl-fan]

I think I dreamt about a race like this last night. Quite the collection of supercars! 👍 The drifting bug and Volvo are also fantastic!

 

[Speed Racer 12]

This is some various new crap. You know, a little of this and a little of that.

First is the Volkswagen Bora.






Next up to bat is the RUF BTR.




Last but certainly not least, is the Mercedes Benz 300 SL Gullwing.
There is a little story about these pictures. I was watching the Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction and I saw a '56 300 SL Gullwing come up on the stage just like this one, black but with a red leather interior. As I looked at the lines of the car and the way they flowed together I just got the urge to phototravel. This is what came of that session.








I hope you all like the pictures. By the way, the 300 SL on the auction block sold for well over $400,000.
