It was raining but i think the cloud cover helped with the Gulf blue paint.

Nice work! What setup do/did you use?

Just a 50mm prime lens and a 70-200mm I used a narrower aperture on these shots F9 ish as i wanted sharper shots. I normally shoot almost wide open for arty fartness.  :happy2:

Supposed to be 4 seconds but only a car thief would Engage the launch control to try it, from memory I think it holds the revs at over 6000rpm to launch   :chicken: if you don't engage launch control it uses some valve on the clutch to protect it which makes it bog down so the real world 0-60 is about 5 seconds.  Having a supercharger screaming 1 foot off the back of your head at 8500rpm makes it an interesting 5 seconds though.  :driver:
