Mamzar was, as usual, a few Soarers, Accords etc. Nothing interesting though.. :(

Bad news guys,

they look really bad becasue of the Night Mode - the camera cant focus well unless its on a tripod.

so i will post the one good pic that came out 'ok'.

Those are really great pics Accord98. It's just the tripod/stand problem that I had too. Mine were on a higher resolution, so I get to see a few green dots in the sky... but these are really nice too... Thanks.

PS. Fatboy, if you forget your cam at the next meet, you're not going home with your Magna.

:D:D

i have more pics, but i messed up the 'night mode' option so the pics were all 'unfocused' and blurred.

If u guys really want to see these pics i can upload them, but im warning you -- ur eyes will hurt!

Too bad, my PC's gone for maintenance. There are already a couple of rides on my list for this month's update. Hopefully, I'll get them all up real soon.

PS. Is anyone of you interested in giving me a hand in doing the Featured Articles? Doing too many of them at the same time only delays the updates.

Can you do articles of the kind I feature every month? Meaning: what all I will be able to provide you is the list of mods done to the car, and the car owner's name. The rest is all for you (or whoever wants to do it) to make out.

Well, thats how I do it. I interview the owner for around 5 mins. Ask their suggestions for their own rides, and then questions like: When the car was bought, what made him tune the car, motivation etc. etc. ... and thats whats used to make up the 600+ words article.

Who wants to work on a Mitsubishi Evolution VI (Tommi Makinen Edition) ? I got a feature-request from the owner: Ryan. I'm supposed to be meeting him this weekend InshAllah (place not decided yet.)

I'll get the list and/or any other details I can get and pass it on to the guy wants to be in!

:D(Y)
