Angry Greek S2000 Owners Community on track having fun

Hello everyone!

We had a great opportunity to visit with our S2000, a small kart track in Afidnes, Athens as you can read also in our Home page link below:

Greek S2000 Owners Community on track having fun

We've got plenty of photos, courtesy of Kita (thanks for sharing) and also a small video that I've put together. Watch the video and the photos below and feel free to post your comments.

it's the girl's first time ever in a drift ride; hence the expression! I loved this moment!

Glad you like the material published

Looks like you had a really great time!

I would suggest to the photographer to use slower shutter speeds next time so the cars appear to be moving rather than looking like they're just parked on a race track

Take a look at these pictures for an example. To get the car in focus and the background blurred you simply keep the car centered in the frame while it drives by and to get the motion blur you need a shutter speed of 1/20 to 1/30 or so.

@Kita
Stay tuned until next time. You've got your S2000 for only a month and so far you are doing well on this kart track.

@rnye
Thanks for your nice comments on this photo. I like it as well!
At that stage a significant part of the thread got stripped from my rear left tire. We were drifting quite a lot on that second session. The girl's face says it all if you ask me.

@LoudMusic
We had great time and am sure that Kita will appreciate your tips for the next time she will shoot us with her camera.

@Sinji
Fun, fun, fun around the track drifting the S!

@kevos2k and jc-s2000
This is a small kart track indeed and here is a view from above. Speed is low in most part of the track and we run on the 2nd gear. Although we suppose to wear helmets, we somehow managed not to, which I agree we should wear them instead.
