What happen is when you turn on the car the temp gauge goes all the way up, and since there is no peg on the temp gauge it sometimes get stuck up there. It’s annoying, happens on my car a lot.

I think it sounded like one guy owned both the SS and the Supra, it's actually two of my friends.

Since my camera is apparently too complicated for LT1Guy (too close or too far)... and I'm the only one who drives the car...nope...
I have some in the car shots though...
And if I ever get them developed, some dyno shots!

Caravan of F-bodies at 70 MPH. Am I multi talented or what. Picture taking and driving!

Interior speed shots would be nice to see too. Here is one of mine. I am cruising into Johnston City at just a mere 25mph.

Hey thanks man I'm glad to see you guys supporting us. I cant wait to get my car finished so I can get back on the track. I want to supprise everyone, last time they saw the car is was almost stock. Next time it'll be waaaay different (L98, T56, Full Suspension, 10 Pt Cage and Race Seats). Should only be another few months. I'm gonna be spending some $$ to buy some camera equipment so pretty soon we'll have some good drifting movies. All legal of course. I'm thinking a camcorder for outside the car footage, or inside car footage attached to the rollbar. Then two of the pen cameras, one attached in the front of the car (by the foglight), the other suspended by a small tripod on the left side of the car (i seen it, its cool lol). I'm going all out so people can really see whats going on and take it more seriously. We'll be posting movies and stills on our website, so you guys can get some more 'speed shots'

If you want to get good, a wet parking lot is all you need. Just remember that drifting on water is alot like drifting on dry ground, just alot slower and less violent. Keep practicing man!
