I literally have about 800 more, so if you're car isn't in these albums, let me know and I'll add one of it. I should have them all up somewhere else eventually.

I also have a handful of short videos, several of which are of the radial-engine MR2. I should have those up early this week and will post the links here and on FB.

Part of what is endearing about the whole project is that it's a mix of both very complex and very simple solutions, some planned and some improvised. The problem of laptop screen visibility looked like one of the easier ones you had to tackle. smile

Re: The Rusty Hub's Photo from Autobahn

[Copy/Pasted because I've already written this a bunch of times elsewhere]:

We took 788 photos this past weekend at the 24 Hours of LeMons' Showroom-Schlock Shootout at Autobahn Country Club in Joliet. See them here:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/80322590@N … 115358064/


We've haphazardly sorted them by:

- car number when only one car is pictured or entirely visible. This was done in reverse numerical order, because we're idiots.

- topic, such as actual nice cars or judging. This is done by arbitrary numbers that mean nothing, much like this blog itself.

If you want hi-resolution versions for your blog, Facebook page, or whatever, shoot an email to eric@therustyhub.com and I'll send them, as long you aren't going to use them to make piles of money.

On the Metro, it says "It's only cute until we pass you."

If you copy/paste the photo's URL in your browser, you can see it. Although Flickr inexplicably rotated some of my photos 90 degrees; this one was clearly without rotating the camera and I didn't rotate while editing. I think it did that with a bunch of them; I'll have to fix those. Bastards.

Re: The Rusty Hub's Photo from Autobahn

All I know is I was routinely passing people in a car with 55HP.  One of them was driving the Green Camaro.  He was none to happy.  Floored it in the straight, only to park it in the next corner.  3 laps later I passed him again, for good.  It becomes clear while driving the Metro the variability in driver skill on each team.

The Metro is getting a makeover... It won't be cute very often in the future.  wink
