people saying that you have to be a proffesional, etc, to get a press pass. im not, and i managed it a few times now.
photography does depend on how good you are, etc, but its getting increasingly into who you know, or who you contact.

ive got a caberg v2, its shit. dont get it. get what i will be getting when i get paid, an arai rx7 corsair in black.

what camera/lenses are you using. for first time on motorsport, they are pretty good pics. it just takes alot of practice to know, without waisting loads of pics, what settings to use, positioning, and of course, track knowlage. vital.

good pics.

canon 400d
18-55mm kit lens
50mm f.1.8
70-300mm sigma
3 flashes, various makes, plus some cheap ebay slaves
7dayshop tripod

i do trackday pics(borrow a mates 100-400mm non-is L) but also skate, and trying to get good at model pics etc.

ive got a sigma 70-300mm lens, check out www.flickr.com/photos/v4forlife for some pics. an ok lens, but if you can push to the canon 100-400 L series lens, get it. about a grand, but so worth it.

on a bike ive owned, 160 on my r6, in general, 198mph on a mates zx12 at a straightliners event.

there is a little place about 2 blocks from 4th and ohio in santa monica that does great wraps. also a breakfast spot, snug harbour, in SM again. great omlettes.

nice to see that things havent changed...people are still ignorant.

cheers for that duke, at least im remembered by the good few.

back for a few days. half way point already, tis good fun too...well, some times.

Wil

Quit wwhining and buy S2

Did euro disney for my 21st, which was brill(was there for a week, lol)
LA for 9 days earlier this year.
not got anything planned later this year, as training will take alot of time

Typical, unless I bitch and moan about not getting replies, or killing threads, or I announce im leaving, I dont geta single word said, lol.

Seriously though, cheers for the replies guys, and I plan o not getting shot, hence why I'm going in a an avionic technician IE fixing heli-choppers far far away from the front line and stray bullets(cept from our american counter parts)

SamH, dont say that, I'm naturally a very paranoid person as it is...

This is my last time, apart from quick rumeges, that I will be on here, and prob the last time I will play LFS, at least for a very long time. Monday morning, I catch a 8AM train to Pirbright to start my career in the British Army.

Its been interesting, and oh so funny. Watching people get pissed at a game, and follow on the argument for weeks, seeing entire servers go spare at some poor 13yr old who has had the game for 30 mins cause he didnt spend 2 months practicing off line and made a mistake at a braking point. Good times, good times.
Compared to alot of people, I havent been here too long, but long enough for a fair amount of people to know me, and to have raced against me. Never heard a bad word said about me personally, and thats the way I live my life.

Well, thats all for forever folks, and hope S3 is out before I leave the army.

Wil.

screw making up an excuse, like time of notice, or too far, or my dogs sick...I just dont like tristian

















and I start Basic training on monday.

Oh crap. at least in teamspeak I can kick franky, now the power is all with him.......good thing im gone on monday, other wise i could see myself with a banned account very quickly, lol.

Now??

at track days, if your slow, or its your first time on a track, you get help, not some 12yr old calling you a noob and spamming a 'blue flag' message.

dont this while I was flying to LA from heathrow. 11 hours in the same place drove me crazy.

If Racing games come up in conversation, I tell them about lfs. I dont play too often, so thats not a problem.
My dad and brother are petrol heads, so they like it, although they are crap, and my mum is happy that I never went out and did crack, but played games as a kid.lol.
My mates all know Im a gamer anyway, cause when I was younger, I would kick all there ass' no matter what agme it was. pissed my neighbour off a treat when i killed him at the first colin Mcrea(SP) a week after he had been playing it non stop, on my first go.

I got bored while waiting for an army interview (which I aced) and doodles this on the back of the thing that I had all my paperwork in.
