Thank you for the information.
Well right now the car is pretty modest as I have had a run of bad luck. I snapped a timing belt in the old motor and it put all my valves through the pistons so right now its stock motor and a heavily ported IX turbo, intake manifold and exhaust manifold with pretty much straight 3" exhaust, fuel pump RC1000's, ets uicp, ams licp, agp fmic. I have another motor that I will be building for it that will be a higher reving 9.5:1 compression motor Ill be running exclusively on E85. Im still nw to this whole car thing so its for sure a work in progress. The car is on Gerrard/vishnu spec ohlins, as well as a full run of whiteline stuff and what not though so it has potential to be a lot of fun even without a ton of power.
nice pics steveo. it's cire from NCE.
nice off camera strobe action. i've been wanting to start messing with that.
the last photo in front of the gate, flash too harsh? it's washing the bumper out a lil. also drawing attention to rock chips and minor blemishes. =)

the cage is just a bolt in auto power, no sense in taking pics of that ugly thing.
As for the light being too harsh I fully agree. The problem we ran into was not having another trigger to get the camera mounted flash off and where we reallyneeded the light. It works fine straight on but anything other then that and there starts to be issues. Next time I shoot my car we will be better prepared. I'm still pretty happy considering what we had to work with. $30 eBay triggers with a $175 550ex mounted and a $25 craigslist sunpak as a slave. No fancy bounces/umbrellas/gels etc. Plus the car has been sitting for 5 months prior to shooting it.
