Cherokee Trails rocks!! (pics)
 
Hey everybody, I wanted to be the first to jump in and give a live update from the rally. Day 1 ended with a huge number of DNFs, including Paul Eklund [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/frown.gif[/img] . The service area was great fun, Autorex and I hung out there while he did time control for service. His new yellow WRX was the center of attention, even the rally drivers were complimenting him on it. The yellow looks better than I thought it would.

Weasel 555 03-16-2001 11:50 AM

STiShawn 03-17-2001 07:26 AM

Ditto, fix it Porter, PLease! Did you find jeff down there? He left Wed. night, and is sleepin in his car.
hacman 03-18-2001 03:03 AM

[img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/smile.gif[/img] Jeff was with us the whole time. He should be gettin home pretty soon. I think he was leaving right after the awards banquet, which ended at 10pm EDT.

I just got back myself, and I'm dead wiped. 2 freakin hours in first gear through Nashville on 24. Cause of that, my drive was just a hair under 12 hours.

To those who came out, glad to have met ya, and we'll have to go back just to run 30 and "that road to the left of the church". [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Porter, you damn tease! [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/wink.gif[/img]
autorex 03-18-2001 07:27 PM

I just dropped off most of my rolls from SS14. I should have them by lunch tomorrow. Hopefully, the zoom lens did it's job right. If it does, I should have some really nice shots.
hacman 03-18-2001 10:12 PM

at the final count, I have 16 rolls total. [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/smile.gif[/img] But I'm gonna send em off to be done with the CDs, so it's gonna take a little bit to get em online.

hopefully, I'll find someone with a video capture card and burner, or get one myself, and get the vids online soon. I'll keep ya posted!
Porter 03-19-2001 07:16 AM

Ok, I'm going to use photopoint this time... give me a few minutes to set it up...


I've got some nice pics, but the other guys with the expensive cameras have the really good stuff. They'll be worth waiting for. [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
pleiades 03-19-2001 10:33 AM

Porter, Shut-up and post the pics!!! [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/wink.gif[/img] I want to see some, since I can't afford to buy lunch, much less get mine developed!

Ah, my roommate took me to lunch! What a nice guy. What, still no pics!! [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/wink.gif[/img]
Porter 03-19-2001 01:54 PM

Pics are up finally!! NBCi's FTP server is down so I had to use 50megs.com. Sorry for the interminable delay!

Boy, Daphne looks pissed! I made her drive the transit back to the hotel, but she really wanted to drive the stages. [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/lol.gif[/img]

Thanks for the video. Looks like I cut the corner a little tight--you can hear the DMS strut go "sproing" as the left front catches the dip. PM me your address and I'll send you the in-car.
SnapperHead 03-19-2001 02:31 PM

Nice Pics Porter!!!!!


The beautiful Silver EVO VI wound up being wrapped around a tree. Mark is still learning how to drive. Man....I'd love to learn how on a EVO VI.

anyone get video of Tootiefrutie doing his victory donuts??? We got there too late, but saw the nice marks he left.
DCRallyDave 03-19-2001 03:57 PM

Porter, Thanks for the rally pics. They're very nice.By the looks of some of your pictures we were standing near each other on one stage. What kind of camera do you use? Is it digital or film? I'm thinking of switching to digital, but I'm still unsure of what to get.

Thanks

Great pics, though you should fix your HTML or get a better server =)

Spaces and other non-standard characters in filenames is a big no-no.

Ghostrider 03-19-2001 06:05 PM

nice pics
dustin5 03-19-2001 08:32 PM

Hey folks,
Here are my pics from the Rally in 'Nooga. It was cool to meet all you blokes.

I think the Cherokee Rally will be broadcast on Speedvision on Monday April 9. Check those local listings!

Later,
Dustin

Remarcable-

I'm quite aware of the formatting/filename problem. If I had more hours in the day I'd certainly redo it. I'm usually a big proponent of clean code, but I was busy working today and didn't have time to reformat any of it. The fact that all the pics are thrown together on one page kind of gripes me too, too bad I guess.
10th Warrior 03-19-2001 09:38 PM

damn you porter. neither the pics or the movies work for me. netscape problem? mac problem? [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

anyway, my pics will be done wed. and i'm getting photo cds as well. where should i post them?

and yes, that road left of the church was my favorite [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] the only problem was when i had to keep stopping to let the rest of you catch up [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/tongue.gif[/img] there just aren't roads like that in the midwest. some good gravel ones, but no mountian dirt roads with big slopes to slide off a-la hyandai.
hacman 03-19-2001 10:17 PM

10th - if ya get them to me, I'll post em on my site for ya. ':^)

You're one crazy mofo! I tried my best to keep up, but just couldn't do it! anything other than flat scares the heck outta me! hehe...
PURE EPI 03-20-2001 04:09 PM

slowing down to wait for us to catch up!!!??? HA!!! [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/lol.gif[/img]

but seriously folks, it was better to have some distance between us...especially when that POOR woman in the white Camery came around the corner[img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/eek.gif[/img] [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/eek.gif[/img] God I thought that she was going to wet herself!!![img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/lol.gif[/img]
crash 03-20-2001 06:04 PM

Just wait until you see the video I shot during that "Camry-fly-by" [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/eek.gif[/img]

I can't remember if I was in EPI's car or hac's but, I nearly wet myself!

holy poop!

Speaking of video's, I'd like to get a copy of that one that I shot hacman. Do you want me to send you a VHS tape?

-Nate
hacman 03-20-2001 09:17 PM

crash - just PM me your addy, and I'll snail-mail it to ya. [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] And I think that was EPIs car with the camary, but I don't think it made it to tape. I'll have to review it again.

EPI was ultrasmooth in those corners! I hear my downshifting/upshifting versus yours and it's a world of difference! I'm gonna have to find some roads I can practice on so I can beat ya next year! [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Hacman. Way cool! Thanks.

Porter 03-21-2001 10:28 AM

10th Warrior- What do you mean you can't view the pics? They're just jpegs. What's up with that? It's the default Sony Cybershot jpeg algorithm, maybe that's the problem. I dunno. [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/frown.gif[/img]
Porter 03-21-2001 11:53 AM

OOOH, video! Crash, hacman, I need VHS copies of your videos. I'll send you blank tapes if you send me your addresses. Video of the Rt. 30 escapade would be awesome, I know you guys got some great rally footage too. Please?

Pm me if you can do this for me.

Thanks!

Great pics Porter!

I feel like I was there!

What camera you were using? Digital?
PURE EPI 03-21-2001 03:05 PM

10th warrior<------ LMFAO!!! [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/lol.gif[/img] [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/lol.gif[/img]

The car already looks mean enough!!! to have it rapidly baring down on you...sideways... in an extremely low-traction situation?? [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/lol.gif[/img]

ack!! where'd it go?!?!?!?!
10th Warrior 03-22-2001 12:04 AM

yeah, pm me your addresses and i too will send off for rally tapes.

porter-were you saying that the file names were all screwed up. that mac might not like that. basically what's happening is the images are all broken. the vids also don't work for me. also, i d/l your compilation movie .avi and it doesn't work (well, the sound does, but thats it). is there anyway you could encode it as an .mpg purtte please.

and that camary was the second funniest other car i've passed. when it snowed here, i went to a large park to tear it up. there was a sharp left (6 or so) that i flick. as i'm coming off the back end swings predictable around and i'm on top of everything, thorwing snow 15' into the air. well, coming up this new road there was some lady driving a civic. her face was one of terror as she saw me sliding through the corner. ahhh, memories.

i get my photos tonight!
Porter 03-23-2001 09:25 AM

Hmmm, looks like all of 50megs went away? I dunno. Maybe you guys crashed the site. [img]http://www.i-club.com/ubb-files/smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I'll try to find another host at some point, I'll repost when I have a real webpage up. Sorry everybody. Hacman and 10th Warrior, I'll email the portraits to you guys.
