My digital is outdated the point that it is almost aggravating to take pictures, but maybe you'll dig some of these. Tony (trash) and I went out after car washes and I snapped these. My car is tinted, his is not...my car is also sans front license plate. That's how to tell the difference. Well, that, and the fact that mine is faster :D

Location #1 - train depot in Painesville, OH:

Location #3 - Painesville Speedway...only because when I pulled in, I was hoping to get a couple on-track pictures. Unfortunately, they were closed...

The tint looks sinister. It also looks illegal.

Nice pics. Don't beat yourself up too much about the camera.

My favorite is the one with the 2 MMs angled near the train station (Pic #4) with all that red brick in front of them. :2thumbs:

I like the train station shots too. It's a good series, and I like how you tried different locations.

The only thing I think would make them look better, is if one was a DTR. :D

I had another color in mind, but agree with the comment in general! ;)------>:D

We didn't want any slow cars, so it's all black, even though Adam's is SLOWWWERRR.

even though Adam's is SLOWWWERRR. Let's put it right out in the open, Tony.

I've said, MULTIPLE TIMES, that I will race you anytime, anywhere. So let's get it out in the open, and find out whose relatively-stock Marauder is faster (mine)! :banana2:

I like the train station shots too. It's a good series, and I like how you tried different locations. The other two locations were just kinda "well, maybe" but I knew that depot would be a winner. I want to re-visit it with someone who actually knows what they're doing, versus someone like me who just points-and-clicks.

I would actually like to take a bunch of cars there on the Panthers On the Prowl weekend and get a picture of the place just PACKED.

Adam/Cleveland you got a bad to the bone ride!

Wait until Tony gets tinted, his will be equally bad to the bone.

Hoods are up, trunks are up, there are people all around, and it's really hard to get much of anything worth keeping. Don't get me wrong, I have shot a lot of large gatherings, but those pics aren't normally the ones that I can do much with.

You had the right idea with doing just two cars. You were able to balance out the picture better. I would like to see some front wheels turned the next time though. ;)

All I need to be bad to the bone is tint, then what am I going to do with the 4.10's, 90 MM Maf, 65 MM dual TB, spacer plate, polished intake, and the NOS?

I'm already ready for the radio show tonight. I have nothing to do but stir the pot here. Too cold to wax the car.

What is the tint on your car?

Looks like the windshield is tinted too? Maybe its just me.

I had 3.3% on mine, at least that is what the LEO measured. windshield was at 35% and the rear window was below 2%..... It was DARK. But too dark for me, it was hard to drive at night.

Pics look great!

What is the tint on your car? Don't remember what Steve (Darkside) told me, but it is darker than legal and yes, becomes problematic at night sometimes.

Front is untinted.

I like the 4th one best. Nice clean cars.

Can you crop out the wires in that picture? That would clean it up a bit.
