Thanks man! I'm still learning how to use all the features on my camera, so hopefully they'll get even better.

Yeah, I had my ISO at H1 when we had our shoot, so they're really grainy at high resolution. I'm going to set it to RAW and try out a few more settings.

Yeah, for those shots you probably would've been good at ISO 800.

And next time you guys have a meet let me know. I usually go to MazdasNW meets, but I definitely wanna start going to more RX-8-specific meets. None of the people on MNW really "get" the 8.

How does the paint handle the heat from the engine? Like have you tried racing the car with the covers painted yet? I want to do it, but don't want the paint to like wear off.

I haven't tracked it or anything, but I don't exactly drive like a grandma either. I like to push my car whenever I can. The paint's held up fine. None of it's come off or anything. Some people do a coat of heat resistant engine clear coat, but I haven't seen a need for it so far.
