I have always wondered how you (and every other person on here who posts driving pics) hold the camera and frame and focus the shot without crashing.

Holy shit. If that's the stage 8 it's a 210mph car.

as soon as I get in the car my camera goes on "auto" and sits in the passenger seat with the lens cap off. If I see something cool I just pick it up and snap, don't even look at the viewfinder most times. Normally they're not perfectly straight, but I fixed these ones in lightroom.

That makes sense. I tried to use my phone once for the same purpose and I damn near dropped it - I imagine having holding a camera body and pressing a physical shutter button makes the quick snap a lot easier.

yep, and if I don't have my A7 with me then I just use the phone. I've become pretty deft at swiping up for the camera without even looking.

I've never seen a Kleemann in the wild. Brabus is practically a common sight by comparison.

Yeah. I gave the guys a thumbs up and he took off. I couldn't keep up in the E90 328.

The Danish attempt to unseat Brabus. I rank them up with Koenig, though Koenig isn't quite so subtle about anything.

I had no idea Kleeman was present in the US, I've always thought it was a local thing (as in Scandinavia and maybe parts of Germany).. The more you know..
