I would love to have a set of Profil 5s back on the car!

Absolutely gorgeous car! What wheels are on there already? I don't think that you could do better!

Not sure if Fikse makes center lock wheels, but I have always wanted a set of Fikse's for my ride I think it's the Classic FM5's that have won my heart over. Would also be a nice set for track use!!!

My ride below, pic taken yesterday!

Okay, before anyone asks or scratches their heads, this shot was taken under bright moonlight at 6:08 AM this morning before dawn. It was a hurry up job, unfortunately.

It is a single 4.5 minute exposure (no Photoshopping) using the Moon as the light source. The orb is made using a special light on the end of a wire tether that is spun around in a circle to make the orb.

The wheels are probably winners for the fugliest wheels as the paint is wearing off on the fronts. Those GT3 pads really dust badly and they are very caustic. If I win the new wheels they will be replacing something most worthy of replacement.



For those interested, here is an example of what work we really do photographically:

Thanks, Bob. It was originally 2.2 megs. I resized it downward to to 1.8 meg and it went through fine.

Thanks, again.

All of you "Users" need to join Rennlist as a member if you really want to enter. Otherwise, you're just posting pictures on the internet.

So John, I created an album, put some pictures there, and then uploaded the same picture to this thread directly from my computer. Should I have linked the picture to my album, or does it not matter?
