Pictures from the Ace Cafe - 17/10/11



Hi All,

Few snaps from the Ace, all reduced in quality down to 800px for upload speed but high res available if anyone wants them. Apologies that the lighting and positioning in the carpark was a bit shoddy, along with me only having my 50mm really restricted what I could take :(

Hope you enjoy, good meeting some new people and some really lovely cars out on show!! Sorry, no engine bay shots, need a larger tripod!!

Sam

Looked clean compared to mine that is acually filthy, mine was next to urs but 1 untill the peugeot went, u can just about see the back wheel in the pic, didnt bother cleanin it as didnt think i would be able to park in car park and it would be dark

Cheers buddy, all taken with my 50mm f1.8. Aperture priority set to around f4/f5.6 & ISO 100 and let the camera work out the shutter speed, under those conditions typical exposure length was about 6 seconds hence the inability to shoot any engine bay shots from my tiny tripod...

Not being a sniper ftl!! :(
 
^ Wondered who you were on here (username to car was failing me), spoke to you at FCS about your airbox set up! Guessed it was you with James on monday!

My name in the real world is Mark. Thanks mate, the car has taken a year or so and is still work-in-progress. Your front definitely does not need to come down more, stop this silly 'for show' thing and make it a proper track monster!!!!!!! November 8[SUP]th[/SUP] at Brands……………

Must Admit Marks PH1 really had me thinking... everything about it is spot on, right down the smell of fuel when you open the boot lid ;) I really need to put some love into mine :(

Thanks J, much appreciated. Like I said it’s a work in progress and still much to do. But because it’s not my daily drive I don’t have to compromise on anything, I guess if it was a daily drive it would get tiresome as it really is too raw and fast (and stinks of petrol!!) for the road.

Yea and this is also my problem with stripping to the extreme you have mark, with using my car daily. That's also the reason it takes longer to get it fixed lol but I deffo want to try and get another track day in this year !
