That's a pisser. I remember him saying "that's the money shot" on I think that one. Compare that work of a pro above using pro equipment, who "knows how to see", to the work of a total amature [me] using a point and shoot with -no- regard to shot setup and framing, below ... I think the diff b'twn pro and amature are clear. The list of what I did wrong is laughably long! I think I'll be taking you up on that Pete.

Hey LilNora,

I was one of the asian dudes drooooooling over your car at the meet.
Me and some friends of mine are planning on running at Raceway Park-Englishtown this friday evening.
We sure would love to run against that SLK55!
Let me know if you're interested.

I guess this would go for anybody in the NJ area. I'll be in a white C55.

I'm always in the Edison area, however I live up North, near Morristown.

Anyway, good meet guys, had a lot of fun, wish we all could of cruised together, would of made some sick rolling shots. Anyway, we should get some drinks next time, but wait till I turn 21 this time.

Oh, and tommy is right! Rip'n in the rain is a pisser as long as you don't have summer/dry-only tires. And with all the slipping, you're not stress'n the suspension & tires as much.

What's not a blast is having to work the course on that kinda day.... 'specially when they don't have a lot of attendants so you have to do 2 work assignments.... then mother nature lets the heavens rip loose.

i'm from Connecticut and i'm 23 years old, and the 0 that "fell off" is for the amount of money left in your parents bank account after they paid the 80 large for your car...
