[K Photography] Racing Spirit Hell's Gate Cruise Event - RX-8

So, two days ago we went for the final cruise event of this year just before winter hits. It's a two days one night trip where we stopped by Harrison Hot Spring for some relaxing hot spring and the must-have-drinking time since we don't have to drive afterward. We stayed at the hotel for the night then headed out to Hell's Gate. Thanks to all the friends that participate in the event guys~ it was a real blast~!!!

On our first day when we were checking in to the hotel, my camera bug bit me so i took out the cam and took these two shots of our fellow member's RX-8.

hope you guys enjoy it~!

it indeed is, honestly guys, i currently drive a 350z, but my previous car was RX-8 and when i first made the change, i was real disappointed in the Z as the turn in and steering response was no where near as good as RX-8, torque is nice on the Z, but power does not Deliver as smooth as the RX-8 would in the power band, i envy people with RX-8 and are able to keep it nice and running.

but it does chew alot of Fuel.

and for all of you who says RX-8 sucks on reliability.
i work at Mazda, all the RX-8 that bite the dust are driven by pussies, if you drive it nice and hard, you'll most likely not have any problems.
My RX-8 i had was at 89,000kms it never flooded on me, never had weak starts, nothing at all, and friends RX-8 in states hit 9x,xxxmiles with no problems, single turbo too.

Well photoshop alone will not do the work because the exposure compensation done in post process will introduce too much noise to form such clarity.

I used two bare speedlites to balance the background to car. So no, no filter is used.
