    I don't worry about any of that anymore. With Affinity Software and then Topaz Sharpen and Topaz DeNoise
    my images turn out like I'm shooting a 1.8 lens and shutter at 9000 in perfect light LOL... I don't get all anal
    about it tho I shoot for 'something to do', to get into the desert, or the woods, or wherever.

    Now you’re talking my speed, although I have always been a mk1 guy.

    Is that yours? Incredibly Euro centric, the wheels, the lights with crossbars installed :hearteyes:

    This is my friends… started off as Mars red. We cut the door handles out and put Audi ones in, de-seamed everything we could, deleted the license plate in the back, added sunroof, cage, buckets, subs, Porsche wheels, M3 mirrors. We almost started a business tuning golf’s but a business between friends was too difficult, unfortunately. We did manage to get two cars on front covers of a magazine in consecutive months :cool:

    Flashback… 26 years!!

    Nice that's very cool. That's a lotta work but it always pays off.

    It's not my mk2 by any means. It was at a show back home in the midwest in Wisconsin in 2014. I went to Waterwagens in 2007, Waterfest in 2005, 2006, 2009. Dubs at the Beach and h2oi in 2010/11. Many more shows after that as well.

    I'll always be keeping my eye out of the right mk2 GTI or a Caddy.

    Nice, I do miss car shows. Had a ‘59 beetle and a ‘76 beach buggy. Should have never sold the beetle but moving continents makes you pack light :(

    If I had a garage I’d totally love to get this… But alas, once we get our lives back on track and we do get a multi car garage the wife will be getting her ‘64.5 mustang convertible project first.

    RIP H20i. I dreamed about going when I was in middle and early high school, and by the timeI was old enough to make the trip they were really cracking down and it wasn't the same.

    Yeah it sucked the last few times I went. But to be fair, it wasn't always insanity. The insanity started when other "scenes" started showing up - Some muscle cars, a lot of JDM cars, who were the main people who ruined it.

    When it was just Euros, we had a good sane time. There were no crashes into condos and the like.

    Was lucky to have someone grab this amazing shot of my car:

    Met this ol' girl while driving through Hill Country, TX during motoGP weekend. Hope she is safe and didn't get hit by the flooding. :(

    She was in the middle of the field, came to the fence as I approached and struck this pose. Let me pet her nose... Will never forget that human/animal moment. <3
