Here's a short vid, with Devon on chase cam PIP.

Falkens stayed cold, no bite. Run was cut short, another story...

Nice. The PIP is badass.

 

for some reason we look like we is going slow as hell...

but then i look at the speedo and the tach and go hmm... lol

too bad my camera wasnt rolling i could have shot both of yous from behind...


... from behind. that sounds nasty.

 

The mountain runs always look slow don't they. Watch the end when Dev lets off and I'm on throttle, better perspective of how the speed ramps up.

 

thats sick, WHERE CAN I DRIVE THIS ROAD!!!!

 

nah i think its just you two

 

nice videography

 

Bah, we didn't have hyperdrive engaged.

 

Thanks. I need to find out what the better vid editing software is.

 

What road is this?

 

Awesome video and road! I would also like to know what road this is...?

 

it should be Blood Mountain/Wolf Pen Gap, up in Dahlonega.

 

Nice driving skills! Car sounds smooth as hell!

 

Awesome video. The PIP looks very good. What kind of camera mount are you using 2thAche?

BTW, me and a friend are going up there tomorrow morning, if anybody wants to join me.

 

It's a sony Handycam DCR-SR40. Basic cam w/ 30GB hard drive in it I got a while back. I like the hard drive cams 'cause I can just drag the .mpegs from the cam to my computer.

What I'd like to do is get a newer HD cam and put the old one in the rear window as a chase cam.

Devon and Bomjoon have wide-angle lenses 'cause they're cooler than I.

PS: Watch for GSP, they ended our run early. Seems someone on a bike died last Saturday. Also it's cold up there, 45 degrees and if you look close you can see the car slip a few times, too cold for the tires to warm up so be careful.

Road: 19/129 northbound (blood mountain) in Lumpkin County.

 

Thanks for the heads up man, i'll take it easy tomorrow.

How did you mount the camera in the car? Did you use a harness bar mount?

 

I can't use a harness bar yet 'cause I put the kids back there sometimes. Once I get a DD I'll put in a cage.

I ghetto mount a medium sized tripod w/ bungees. It's very stable actually, 2 feet to the floor/against the front seats, one to the rear seat. Bungees from the top of the tripod and hook under the seat rails. You can also rig a mount using one of the safety hook bolts on the rear deck.

 

Here's an older vid of Leadfoot following Devon and I on 180 when the STI was stock.

Those videos are really neat. I need to start paying more attention to these mountain runs so I don't miss the next one.
