I'd like to go one of these years. Hopefully they'll change the date back to what they had. April seems to early to me.

Dang! I won't be able to make it...but MAN would I love to see your car in person!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[69rs]

I'm planning to go, since it's only 30 minutes from my house. They put on a good show. They have a cruise-in once a month too.

[69rs]

The first day at YR1 started out fine. Good weather, nice cars (Chicane, the Year One cars, the Goodmark Nova, and the cars of the mere mortals), car celebs (Chip Foose, Johnny Hunkins, Kevin Kng-YR1 pres., two of the guys from Barett-Jackson Car Search) then the rains came. I mean the heavens opened up! Nice, it hasn't rained in two weeks! Perfect timing. Well, Saturday and Sunday are supposed to be nice.

[69rs]

The winner of the Year One Cup was a red 69 Pro-touring Camaro. I have pics but can't seem to download them.

[69MyWay]

I can't wait to see the pics.

Are you not able to attach them to your post?

[69rs]

I can't seem to get them out of Kodak Easyshare. :mad: I'll work on it.

[907rs]

Jim, you should be able to upload the pictures directly from your picture program. Just click reply, when the reply to thread window opens, scroll down until you see manage attachments. Click that, click browse, then look for the pics on your hard drive, then upload.

[69MyWay]

I can't seem to get them out of Kodak Easyshare. :mad: I'll work on it.

That's funny to me, because we have a Kodak Easy Share as well. I tell you that is the most UNeasy device I have ever hooked to the computer!!!!!!!

A friend of mine at work was shopping for a camera and was leaning to the Kodack Easy Share (KES for short). I tried to talk him out of it. He said consumer reports, etc. ranked it very high. He bought it. I have heard complaint after complaint from him since that his computer locks up during transfer, etc. etc. etc.

I love the quality of the photos, the flexibility of different types of photos that can be taken, but I HATE the difficulty in managing them to the computer.

I have to run the cord to the computer. Open the KES program on the computer. Once it is open I plug into the camera and turn the camera on. This will automatically initiate the download. It will then creat a new file folder under the KES folder with the title of the date it was transfered over.

One in there I then have to go to my docs, my pics, KES, the file folder of choice, right click on the picture I want, and "Open with" my photo editing softward that came on the computer. After I get it opened that way I can re-size to fit the forum specifications and save/rename the image. You will want to make sure it is saving it in as a .jpg because at least my photo editing software will try to save it as a .psf.

Anyway, GREAT picture taking camera, but a huge pain in the butt for the actual "sharing" part of the process! :willy:

Hey 69rs,

Sorry that I missed you in Ga. I had your cell number on a sticky on my Ricks book and my buddies were looking through it and it fell off somewhere...and I did not have access to a computer.

The Red camaro. Was it sitting next to a red 67 c10 truck? Was the guy's name Scott that owned the car? If it is I spoke with him for about 45 minutes.

[69rs]

That's it Payton. Sorry I missed you. I was there when he pulled up and started getting it ready and he didn't seem real talkative, so I didn't want to bother him. I heard he has another Camaro about 5 weeks from completion that's nicer than this one!

[XcYZ]

Here's the pic that Jim took. :thumbsup:

[69rs]

Thanks, Scott! :thumbsup: It was a decent lookin' ride. :yes: I have interior and engine shots, too. I know this crowd isn't interested in those. :rolleyes:
Decent looking?!? It was awesome!! :hail:

[Payton King]

That was the one I thought it was. His other camaro is bagged.

Hey did any of you guys get to do the parade laps? That wasn't like any parade lap like I was expecting. Since my car wasn't done I rode with my brother in his '90 mustang. It was awesome, his has a 460 with an auto. and man I just can't describe how fun it was. And then I went for a ride in my friends car. It is an '86 greenish mustang, 5 sp, 302. And I have to admit the stick was a whole lot more fun. And by the way this Mustang got a photoshoot with 5.0 Mustang.
All I have to say is if you didn't get to do the Parade laps or if you didn't get to do the wet autocross you missed out!!!!!!!!!!!
That was the best time i have ever had at a carshow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will post saome pic.s later this week.

[69rs]

I didn't get to do the parade laps! :mad: When I saw what they called "parade laps", I knew my car couldn't take it! I know it had to be awsome, but the offset on my wheels is wrong (8 in. ralleys) and I was afraid I would get into a turn and rip my fenders off! :drive:

Was this parade lap on a road coarse? Or oval?

[69rs]

The Road Atlanta road course. It is a great track! Lots of elevation changes.

This is my friends '85 Mustang GT. He had the honor of having "5.0 Mustang" magazine do a photo shoot on his car at Year One this weekend. It is a very clean car.

[MarkM66]

I saw the "Year One Cup" winning '69 on "Dream Car Garage" yesturday.

They said if the owner would sell it, he'd get between $200-$225k for it. Yeah, ok....
