Wow thanks monty I like how you say to leave it alone then offer your opinion right behind it...who's pissed.... just think the panty dropping thing is stoopid... but then again its probably coming from the land of arm band tattos, bad boy club stickers and driving fromt the track and not the stand...so i will go back to yelling at newb kids and throwing fits on the local level.....

So in the same right as dont like dont read... then i guess it would also characterize dont like my opinion, dont ask publicly for one...

No worries you have voiced your openion over and over, every one understand where it is you stand or at least I do.

Monty C if this goes like we hope it does, next year we may very well do a "adult" version if there is enough request for it (my wife and business partner did not think it would sell as well) we will be doing more market research as we sell this version. We are already in the planning stages to shoot a PG version (no girls, just cars) for little timmy or the grown guys that dont like to look at girls.... Make sure to check out our facebook page for up to date info on the release date and launch party.

Will the rain ever stop around here, we get a few days of sun, I get everything ready to go practice and then it starts raining again. Thinking I need a boat.

Wanted to take the chance to post up a few of the shots that did not make the cut for the calendar, again these have had no post processing done to them (no need they will not be used).

Also we have selected the final four images that are contenders for the cover image, if you would please take a second and vote for which number is your favorite.








Cover shot images to vote on

All of them are pretty bad IMO... put up 8 more. #3 is the only one I would even consider a keeper... the others would be right in the bin.

Then Ill rephrase my answer... if i had to pick 1 picture for some kind of final product, the answer would be "none of the above"... The cover needs to be your best shot.. and if #3 is your best shot, then you're in trouble. Post 8 more, maybe there is a keeper in there.

I like #3 and #4 (adjust the white balance a bit)

You might want to consider combining a number of images for the cover...including some face shots of the models...maybe 3 or 4 face shots to gain the interest of the viewer. A good set of eyes on a model can really draw in the interest of the viewer.

Thanks Rob, will take that into consideration, our original plan was to have all the models and RC's on site for one BIG shot, however we had to shoot over several days and with the models schedules and the owners of the RC's we just could not make it happen, so we decided to have fun with the cover.
