What kind of speeding are we talking about here? like no 10 mph over cruising, or no like 30 mph over weaving and such?

Also, how bout legal drag racing at a track, i assume that is ok right?

 

legal is what we want.
we do not want to promote anything illegal like speeding or street racing.
we just want videos of cruises, around town, in the city, through the country side, etc.
id like to see drag vids too, both outside and inside the car

 

thats a kool idea heck im off today i'll grab the camera and take the long way to the gym

 

Bad:
weaving on road with other cars
showing speedometer going over 65
anything dangerous or illegal on public roads
not a bright idea:
showing speed limit sign
good ideas:
nice curvy road with no traffic that has no speed limit signs.
driving without view of speedometer
speedo pics on road course

 

This great choice in music.

 

Havent been on in a whole day and I like what I see. Looks like quite a few liked the idea of cruisin videos! So who lives in AZ? I wanna see some canyon drivin!

Alex V, I wasnt turning hard its just that all I used to hold the camera was a tripod with a seatbelt on


One thing I'd like to work on is having an external camera near the front wheel by the fenders kinda like in professional driving videos and such. Considering I do have two cameras...I think it'd give the video a whole new dimension by editting two recordings into one but for now I'll get better and maybe work on the interior camera holder.

So Wayne, like Benstoked said, would you prefer video links PMed to you prior to posting for approval and to avoid a week ban?

 

Id say point one at your feet but your auto-tragic and it would be quite borning

hey, john, you know that if we "act good" we don't have to worry about that.
I would like to see some closed course action, too.
in and out o' the car.

 

Less yappin...more videos folks..

Here's a cruise for you

Here's a video I shot a few months ago at the drag strip - enjoy.

Ah yes, I remember this from a while ago, Who made the song in it again?

His description on youtube says

"This is my goofy documentation of my first ever trip to a drag strip. Not bad for a first time on the strip, but I know I can do better. The song at the end of the clip is also performed by me. My fun tribute to the Nissan Maxima 'Snoop style'.
I gotta say the drag strip is addictive. Hopefully I'll be adding better times as I improve my skills and make a few tweaks to the car."

I guess I answered my own question.

Yes, the song is cool! I'd buy that for a $1 (price is good, seeing some places charge 0.89 to 0.99 ).

Nice vid too.

 

+1 on paying a buck for the song... haha, it'd just be funny/badass to listen to with my friends in the car while they're all

 

This video wasnt made nor intended for this thread but should meet the requirements as to the rules

Well thank you kindly. Yeah, I thought I'd have some fun with a tribute a la Snoop & Pharrell. You can download the full song here:
drop it like its hot maxima version.mp3 - 6.21MB

And yeah, that would be awesome to get $1 for the download lol.
My PayPal account name is hadman[at]rogers.com. Your donation would be awesome, but it is otherwise free.
Maybe I get enough interest, I'll upload another 'bonus Maxima track' I did called "STAN". The 'EmineMax' parody of a fight between two members on my local Maxima club board. I am a moderator there. "Stan: The Jer version" was my way of talking things over with them.
How's that for a teaser. $10 dollars worth of PayPal donations for Drop It Like It's Hot - The Maxima version will trigger the release of "Stan". Ha!

 

dude this **** is getting burned as we speak, it SOOOOO gonna get pounded TONIGHT and the bass level is going from -3 to +4

 

oh noes say bye to johns windows.

And good job on the tail gating. Your running that poor minima off the road....

~Alex

 

Now what would be cool is for you to video tape that so I can see and hear my music - transcending borders so to speak.

Can I get an amen for 3rd gen love

 

Amen!

 

Bless you child.

 

signalling to the music? at least that's what i tot i taw. i tot i taw a puddy tat.

 

Now, just so you know I've been 10 steps ahead of ya and already was done making the video by the time you posted this...yes I went off roading in a parking lot filled with frozen snow but I cant upload the vid to youtube or photobucket cuz its 108mb and my format converter 15 day trial expired I dont wanna chop the video I just wanna make it an AVI so it can be less than 100mb.

Anyone offer some wisdom?

 

Ok so I managed to bring the size down to 95mb and uploaded to youtube, here's the 5 min video.

Is there a way I can embed the vid?

nah, the board only supports minimal html coding.
(if you're subscribed, i had tried to paste some code, no worky, as you can see)


didnt notice the off road thing,****ty 'Cago roads.

 

Linux...

 

[yt]RpyKUq_SkYM[/yt] oh well no youtube bbcode embeded

 

'least its free.

 

and is more reliable than windows

 

but not everyone can transition from M$ to *nix. awesome OS, just no mainstream game support. (it starts to get that, M$ is done.)

 

it has game support for 95% of the games out there. WoW is the only one that I can recall that is sketchy.

 

gamers (that I know) are unaware of linux compatability for their mainstream games. That, and they pretty much play the "Games for PC" which, when you read between the lines, screams "MICROSOFT"...

But we're OT, and that is a conversation for another forum...

 

well when I want to run games on the eventual carpc in my eventual 5th VE. i will run em on Linux w/ wine. I am not a lemming!

 

Linux has major problems with ATI video cards though... I have Ubuntu Linux (Yeah, yeah, I know) on a 40GB partition and grub at startup. That's the way to go in my opinion if you don't want to directly make the transition.

 

How dare you all make 10 posts after mine without a single comment! guess I know how it feels now

 

Hah, fine.... Now Brian knows why he keeps having to replace your warrantied struts??...

 

He's never had to replace em and I never did that with the old ones beside this is the first time I actually abuse my caR

 

oh, weird... I thought I remembered reading it a while back about your KYB's blowing at like >20k miles. Maybe it was someone else. Hah, the video was good up until the second song came on.

 

I thought he warrantied your rear struts as mentioned in a previous thread?
