So far I'm enjoying my "summer" vacation. Cooler weather right now, so it's a great time to go cachin'! Only we don't seem to have time to. :(
Heading to LCA to work for about 3 days. Guess they are short-staffed right now.
In Shift, I'm two levels away from completing the game. What fun! After I finish, I plan to work on Hot Pursuit II.
The Pathfinders are heading to the Nationals in mid-April. That's the final level in the Bible Bowl Challenge. Really hoping that they win, but I have my personal doubts. ;)
Well, that's all for now....

...
Took six photos this week. Nothing very exciting happened, so it won't take long to tell.
First, the official shot for the two cars I bought last week.
Aston Martin V8 Vantage
And the SEAT Leon CUPRA, with the Works package
I did some more racing on the Hazyview Figure-8 track. Here are a couple of pictures taken when I was driving the Lamborghini Reventon.
I also took two pictures of my Vantage when I was racing on the 'Ring.

NFS Racing
Well, this week I really got into the Photo Mode. 8 photos altogether. Several pics, though, were taken in the same race, so it won't take as long to describe.
Ambush Canyon was the track that I used the most this week. First race was with the Audi R8. Here I out-braked the red R8 for 2nd place.
I must say that the R8 has grown on me. At first, I thought it somewhat bulky and not a nice handling car. It's definitely not as nice as the Zonda R, but it's good. I eventually went on to win the race.
Next, I took my Toyota Supera for a spin on a Dakota track. This is a view from the driver's seat. BTW, the Red Cross sign says: 'Text "HAITI" to 90999 to donate $10.'
Next I took my newly painted Koenigsegg CCX for a couple of races. At the Glendale West track, the action got a little intense behind me. (Thankfully!)
I came in 3rd in that race.
Next, I took the CCX on Ambush Canyon. Once again, the start proved, well, chaotic. Here's me giving the car in front an unneeded boost.
Damaged my car so bad that I DNF'd. So, I tried again. Did better...
...Until we came to a sharp corner. The car in front of me dove into the inside line, I took the outside. The inside car got too close to the fence and shied away, but too violently. As he came toward me, I thought I could clear him, but he struck my tail at an acute angle, sending me straight into the concrete-and-metal fence. Bummer!
Badly damaged, I DNF'd. Again.
So I parked the Koenigsegg and took the Zonda R our for a spin. On the Hazyview figure-8 track. With 15 other opponents. Two words to describe the ensuing race: Hectically chaotic.
I won. Barely.
For my final race I took the R8 on Ambush Canyon. Passed a good number of cars right off the start, then braked slightly as I approached the corner. And got hit in the back.
Around I went. Damage: minimal. Continued racing and placed first. A great way to finish.
Also bought two new cars, which I'll photograph next week.
