Now you look like a bigger tool for not turning up!
JOKING!

If you drive a B-Series (even if you don't!) you're always welcome and won't look like a tool for showing up and having a chat

Photo's came out really dark unfortunally, I really need to get a remote for my camera & go down on my own with my camera & laptop & have a play to get them half right. Anyone good with Lightroom?

Gavl: got a real nice photo of your car, just real dark :(

Lak87_BA: I know what ya mean, I get a nervous feeling everytime I got to a meet/cruise, its about getting out of your comfort zone, once ya there for a bit its all sweet, come down next time for sure we'll be there.

Can't adjust the brightness/contrast and colour balance a bit in photoshop you might be able to get it ok without the picture becoming grainy. If you want send them through to me (pm me for an email address) and I can do some adjustments if you'd like?
