Been a while…

Posted in Random Photography with tags , , , , , , , , on November 20, 2009 by dalwinco

It has been a few days since I have posted at all. I am sorry. I have not had any people ask for photo shoots. And I have been busy lately also. But here are some random photos I have taken since then.

As you can tell, I have been bored. Lol.

Sorry.

I realize that I have not posted in a very long time. It is getting hard to post things all the time. I have been busy with school and with work at the moment. But, once I can get some photoshoots lined up I will be back in the game. But, until then, it will be a while until I post something else. I may post some random photography that is not cars. Maybe… depends how I feel. Lol. Well, I am out. Later.

Justin’s Build?

Posted in Justin's Build with tags , , , , , on November 12, 2009 by dalwinco

I guess I decided to start a build blog for Justin. I will updating it pretty normally. To see his build just click on the name Justin on the right of the screen under categories.

As you can see he had broken a mount. The person before him took horrible care of it. Ever more reason to go Hasport. :]

This is the area he is working in.

We had gone to D&D to find a new engine and we found one possibility. But, we decided not to go with it.
Bam nigga!:

The motor does not look too good.

Anyway, here are some other weird things I saw today.

And I have no idea what the F this is. Lol.

A coil field?

Now, I wish I was this low.

That is all for today. Mission unsuccessful. It will take some time to get the EF back on track. Meet tonight! see ya then!

A tribute to the Bugatti Veyron.

Posted in Bugatti, Uncategorized with tags , , , , on November 12, 2009 by dalwinco

Since I have nothing else to talk about I will talk about a car that is very near and dear to me. The Bugatti Veyron. As we all know it is claimed to be the fastest production car in the world. Though many claim it not to be. Here are a few things that make it a beast of a car:

-8.0 litre W16, 64v DOHC quad-turbocharged
-1001 Hp
-921ft/lb
-Top Speed: 253Mph.
-7-speed dual clutch sequential manual
-4162 lbs
-0-60 in 2.5 seconds.
-1/4mile in 10.2 seconds.
-Estimated 9 mpg
-a total of 200 ever made.
- estimated cost 1.7 Million -5 Million depending on the model.

There were 8 different variations of the Veyron as listed:
- Pur Sang
-Fbg par Hermès
-Sang Noir
-Bleu Centenaire
-Linea Vincerò by Mansory
-Grand Sport
-Sang Bleu

This is the wheel of the bugatti. A staggering 365mm in the rear. That is nearly 20 inches in width.

This is the Pur Sang model. The engine is still the same but, the body was changed to a aluminum/ carbon composite material. There were only a total of 5 made. Most of them went to Dubai. Rich bitches. Lol.

The final variation of the Veyron I would like to talk about is the “Linea Vincerò by Mansory”. There are only a few changes. It has a new intake system and exhaust changes. It is now putting out 1109 hp hp and 966 ft/lbs of torque. It is also the only Veyron to be tuned to date. This is by far my favorite.

Linea Vincerò by Mansory

Well, that was all for today. I don’t think I will be posting anything else tonight. I will try. Catcha later!

Just a plain ole day.

Sorry for not posting for a while. Been busy again. But, anyway, we met up again and we had a huge turnout. It was nice seeing the gang. There was a bit of football throwing around, racing and just fun conversations. Sounds fun right… SIKE! Anyway, the races were nice to see. I am not throwing names or cars out there but, it was fun.

Onto the pics…

It was kinda funny filling up the whole car wash. Lol.


Kevin’s car was acting up.

Christine’s Em2

Jorgie changing his wheels. He had a flat a while back.

See what I have come down to? I am super bored and there is nothing to take pics of anymore. LOL.
This is Justin’s new cah. The EF with the ZC motor. I only took a few shots. The shell is busted. Lol. And he broke a motor mount. He has a few plans but I will keep hush hush about it for now.

Here is some photoshop work I did today of Gary’s 350. Here is the original image:

DSC_0145_640x426

The first thing I did was activate radial blur to the wheels to make it seem as if the wheels were spinning.
Blur DSC_0145_640x426

Second, I had selected the background and added motion blur to it.

And lastly I just chose the option “lens correction” and changed a bit of things. I like the final product except for the yellow line on the car. I need to find out how to get rid of reflections.

Maybe I overdid the effects. Lol. Maybe…

350z

Posted in 350Z with tags , , , on November 10, 2009 by dalwinco

Sorry for not posting in a while. I have been quite busy. I met up with Gary and took a few shots of his 350Z. He has some nice plans for it. He wants a twin turbo kit one day. But, the nice part of our day is that Brandon came down to meet us and they raced. Sorry Brandon… LOL. Anayway, onto pics of Gary’s whip.















I wish I could have taken some rolling shots… Maybe another day. Anyway, I am going to experiment with some photoshop. See ya later!

Photoshop CS4

Well, I have managed to get my hands on Photoshop CS4. It is pretty nice. I don’t have anytime to post any in-detail things at the moment but, here is a pic I had edited. It was a just a blurred effect across the background.

Tonight will be busy but, I will try and get some new pics up by Monday for you guys. Sunday is a bad day for any shoots because I work all day. 11-8. Ugh… Well, at least Monday will be good. I will be taking pictures of my friend Gary’s 350z. It is pretty nice. We are going to try and do some rolling shots. But, I still have to experiment with the shutter speed. Well, catcha then!
