Pics of my ride, Finally!

OK- I finally have pics of my ride! Now all I need are lessons on how to use this camera properly so that the pics actually look at least 20% as good as DiD's do


Now of course how do I post them in my thread instead of as attachements?

I like pic 3 the best. I'm a sucker for those low-angle shots. Plus, the way you get the car to almost fill the frame is nice.

And that europlate! That is cool.

Thanks guys! I am sucker for compliments! The plate itself is courtesy of my best friend (an engineer for BMW now living in Munich as there is a double meaning to the plate). the holder is courtesy of Twister (member of NAM) who got it somewhere and he can tell you where.....

Erik- Hopefully we will meet up someday! You should make sure that you come to the Dragon, I have not been but I hear there is nothing like it! Over 200 MINI's converging on the best set of twisties this side of the Mason-Dixon!

Thanks. I'm glad you like my work.

I started writing up some tips for you, but it turned out to be long enough I just put it all into a new thread.

Looking forward to more of your pictures.

Yes, the Dragon weekend sounds awesome. I'm trying to see if there is anything for my wife to do while we're up there. She'll be 8 mos. pregnant by then and is probably not going to enjoy all the corner carving

Sounds good, Chris.

I started a thread over in the Dragon forum here on NAM and on Atlantaminis to see what else there is to do near the Dragon.

Keep in touch as the event approaches .....the Dragon Run, I mean.

BTW, my wife likes your euro plate. How did you attach it to your bumper?
