20 years later, only one automatic in our fleet of 9. haha
My trunk tool kit is a bit over the top, but probably because it’s in an RX7. :P

- Hammer
- Electrical Repair kit (including soldering)

This article comes at a timely moment for me.
I am a car enthusiast. I race. I build. I fabricate. I figure stuff out. And not once has having female parts caused some sort of handicap in doing that (aside from my weaksauce hands - I just use more leverage and power tools).

Absolutely. 100%. This drives me batty. I have some bad-ass car girls in my circle who really know their stuff, then I’m in some Facebook groups where I just need to walk away sometimes.

GT3 is the class he runs in the local race series. We class based on brackets in GT1-GT6.

Canon 60D with a variety of lenses - from 28-74 to 120-400.

Honestly, the only intelligent car movie I can remember in recent times is Rush, and it was a true(ish) story.

Very glad we can import anything over 15 years old in Canada without any hassle really. Tons of Skylines kicking around here.

BINGO!

We just bought a 2008 Chevy Avalanche LTZ as a tow vehicle for our race car. In that truck, there was this cryptic little button - like a water fountain full of bacon - we had no idea what it was for. Even WORSE, it didn't work. It had a light on it, but pressing it seemed to do nothing.

It's pretty simple. The dips on the sides of the rotors are like the combustion chambers (cylinders). Fuel/air goes into them, gets compressed against the side wall of the chamber, then passes by the spark plug for ignition.

Reminds me of this:

They finished the race 0.09 seconds apart. It was wild.

Thanks very much!

Related to number 1, rally photographers seem to spend most of their time in the woods/weird spots. Here's one another photog caught of me at Targa Newfoundland. I only almost dropped gear in the ocean a couple times.... haha

Love it! At COTA?

A photographer friend, Matt Jacques, used to do this, but have vehicles chase him.

I have some shots of those Mercs getting airborne too. LOL

I should also add that if it's not broad daylight (rainy, dusk) I just bring up the ISO a little bit if it's struggling to get an appropriate f/ stop (like 4 or above). On a good DSLR, you can reasonably go to like ISO 400 without too much trouble.

Was that at ALMS weekend at Lime Rock this summer? I was there. :)

I generally use the shutter priority setting when I'm doing a lot of motorsports stuff.
