New Ride

Posted By Robert Watters

My recent purchase. smile

1967 Chevelle 300.
Has a real mild SB 350 with auto tranny. 12 bolt posi 4.11 rear end.
My brother in law took it down the track last fall with a not so great carb and tune, it ran a 13:81.
Fixed the carb problems and gave it a much needed tune, should run low 13's now. Can't wait to see!

I've got a BB 454 waiting in the wings for next spring! smile

Storm shots

Posted By Robert Watters

From a recent, nasty storm that passed thru last week. It dumped 12 plus inches of rain in places over a 3 hour span, Chicago being one of them. It just missed us to the south. Quite the show with non-stop action, it was difficult to take a bad shot. 8O

This is the overflow for Apple Canyon Lake in northern IL.
Makes for nice shot.

Common Nighthawk

Posted By Robert Watters

To say the least, tough subject to shoot!
Just after sunset, high ISO, fast little buggers...
Out of 50 or so attempted shots these are the best I could manage. :S
