Hi CRH - was wondering about you. I had forgotten about the computer. I enjoyed meeting you. Definately it was great to have you become an honorary lifetime member of the SE forum team..

Phlash,

Got one more file going your way. It's only 2 laps, but it's set to music. If it's too big, let me know and I'll try to make it smaller.

I said this in ATL but I'll say so again here; I wish to make the R/A event an annual trek which serves as my own "season opener" and next year I plan on recruiting some other Detroit RX's to come along. Now we just need a mid-season event at a halfway point between Detroit and Atlanta so we all can get together three times a year.

We've got choices in Lowe's Motor Speedway in Charlotte, (I grew up there so I can be the host), or VIR.

Dang Silver,

Better be careful or you are going to make a name for yourself! You have got it going on dude. The moderators of the forum need to see your work because you have sure raised the standard bar! Now this may cause you some problems because at the next event we will want you to cover it rather than drive it!
Oh by the way, nothing like a picture of yourself to remind one of how big their head is! I have a big head. LoL.
Hope all are well. I agree Charles annual event. March timeframe may be a good one. We are going to get better and better and faster and bigger. Maybe we can start our on spec class?
CH --we all need to look at a midpoint true enought. Anything in sept or oct?
Anyone interested in getting cz's/equipment to tune? Can get 20-25hp WITH tuning! You can buy a cz off the forum for about $300-400 and then we call can split the equipment (approx $300) plus a lapt(which we have im sure). The we could all place a midpipe just for race day and we all could be pushing 30 more horses. And we would sound much better on the track!

Is that for prints or digital files? It doesn't say.

Nabil, thanks for the kind words. You may want to hold off on making the real good prints until you get the high-res files I will be giving ya'll after I get everything finished.

As far as the prints go on the other site. I don't want to get into furnishing prints and having to deal with mailing and keeping up with all of that. All I would like to do is deal with digital files. Maybe I should reconsider the price since they can print as many as they like. I'm open to suggestions.

Nabil, I've tried 3 different browsers; IE, Firefox and Safari. Neither will access the trackshots website. I guess they have Mac's blocked or some stupid crap!

Dang Nabil, sounds really good. I just momets ago purchased a new domain name and hosting account and will persue this angle, silvereightstudio.com, big surprise! When I've finished this site I will start on a the main one. The RA NASA site will be a sub catigory. Hope to do a lot more of these. I'll work the details out later. Thanks for your suggestions.

I am looking at the schedule sent to me by NASA but I am not sure where some of the tracks are located. We went to R/A last weekend, are looking at a MI trip Aug. 13-14 so we now need something in the middle of the two dates halfway between MI and GA.

Any suggestions? I see NC/Rockingham June 11-12(?). There is also Shenandoah in VA on the same weekend.

Same here Don. Have you found a way to open it yet? That's strange.
