I could do painted cf. I've got to look into something at some point. That spot on my current hood could start chipping at any moment.

Consider yourself stalked. Mainly because of that other "Z". Looking good Mr. Bucket!

I could have posted some older pictures from back in the day, but that would be cheating...

Fantasy Studio D where Journey, Metallica and Aerosmith, ect... recorded.

These guys sounded like Journey meets Whitesnake...we almost made it big, but nope...

Sold them to a record label, but it got shelved..

When in doubt, go for a high angle pic. Helps conceal double chins well too.



My Z is calling me. To drive or not to drive.......

they need to provide a dial, not a slide level that goes from -10db to +20db. on the Z, i think -4db to -5db could work well.



hey mr.alcheng have a safe trip! yah, as noted above, the rode is a great mic, but not for car unless you have other gear to adjust level.
Mr.kenchan, sorry to know the mic didn't work out the way you want. It's always tricky to setup it up in the car.... with all the other noise and stuffs...

Did a 4:50 minute drive in 3:50, including a bathroom break and managed 25.8 mpg.
Checked in to my hotel, debugged the front of the car with some QD, cleaned the windshield and now it's time to find some grub.
