The 6 volt batterys are true deep cycle. They have much thicker plates and can handle deep discharges without sulfating as bad (the death of a battery). They also have a much higher amp hour rating at higher amp draw than a 12 volt battery. They are much heavier and taller than a 12 volt. Bottom line, no comparison, two 6 volts are better.

I was playing around and came up with a few alternatives of some of the photos. Thought I would share.

Those are great shots. I really like the first two. The hotels do look like they are on fire.

That was cool! One of these days I'll get one.

Very nice, good job!

Thanks for the compliment Pete. Pressure is on me now, I have seen some great photos already.

Still working on my photos, here is a few samples.

Thanks Pete for the good words!! I did take over 2000 photos. I got lots of good ones and I'll link to them here once I get them finished and uploaded. I had a great time. The 70's, the owners, the spectators, the sponsers, and visitors were all fantastic. Very well produced event. Good job folks! I was impressed. Thanks to all the guys who let me do night shots of their toys! More to follow,,, stand by..

I'm donating two free 8x10's from my photo site: Nealrideoutphotography.com

Next its lenses, then software, then ...... Good choice on camera. Learn about exposure compensation and have a blast. Here is a good read for you: http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/d90/users-guide/index.htm Real good easy to understand users guide.

From this Vet, Thanks. And let me fix that for you. My neck was hurting.

Good choice on the D90. I use one and am very happy with it. The D50 isn't made any more. Did you mean D5000? Its a good camera also.

I have AT&T. Very spotty in the camp areas. Seems better as you go easterly. Works at North pole good, voice and data. Works at or near the top of most dunes with a clear shot towards Baker. What people call Banshee hill, used to be called Cell phone hill. Works good there.

One more for coil overs, for all the good reasons above.

Some tri tip?? Dude, thats why i'm going.

I do agree that this is a major problem and an accident is surely inevitable. Not if but when. It is the single biggest detractor of camp life out at the dunes. The problem is what to do about it. It’s more widespread than most would admit. 15 MPH is fairly slow and without technology, most probably couldn’t properly guess their speed. I always hear education as an option but for the last 20 years the problem isn’t better. Enforcement is an option, but do we really want to start seeing speed traps randomly setup around camps? The blatant disregarding speeder who hauls butt by a patrolling ranger vehicle usually isn’t stopped either, just too many of them. I really get disgusted when they haul butt right next to our camp. Running out and yelling “Get outa my yard” hasn’t been effective. I’m not sure what the solution is, but I know an imposed government solution might be worse.

Saw this today.

OK, I RSVP'd. I will be out with my camera gear. I'll also be looking for anyone who wants to volunteer for some night photos.

Any chance of getting a press pass?? I don't have a 70,, just a camera.
