Auspanglish Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Well, hope you find this an entertaining way to spend 10 minutes of your time... (10min each vid) all I can say is it was way more fun actually doing it than it is to watch it!!! While I'm at it, I may as well post the trilogy of the ride on the way up (the day after) to Los Calares del Río Mundo with the local VFR mob (and sundry)... for all you snowed in folk: Episode 1 Episode 2 Episode 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer FotoMoto Posted March 25, 2008 Member Contributer Share Posted March 25, 2008 Can you make another one with just the V4 music? I'd loved to see (hear) that! :beer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspanglish Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 Can you make another one with just the V4 music? I'd loved to see (hear) that! :beer: So would I, but I'm afraid the wind noise drowns out all but the odd moment (1%) of GDC whine and/or engine accelerating. It's an el cheapo digital instamatic camera... (Casio 7.2 MP), so I've no way of installing an external microphone and locating that near the can... although, next time I'll try mounting the camera on the exhaut side the problem is the wind noise... maybe I can make up some sort of defletor shield...

Auspanglish Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 Just t demonstrate what I mean... too much wind noise... and here the camera is protected by the windshield...

Auspanglish Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Hey, glad you all enjoyed it/them... don't know if you've seen them all Skute, 'cause there's around 50 minutes worth of "VFRiewing pleasure" for you there... Sometimes i'm not so sure about posting them... wonder if I should get the flame suit on for taste in music or crossing white lines... (how did BR put it? Line selection?) :unsure: But thinking back to that thread about VFRD members' taste in music, I figured at least SebSpeed and Riv would dig most of it!!

Member Contributer tc rides Posted March 31, 2008 Member Contributer Share Posted March 31, 2008 Great vid !! Any chance we could get a list of the songs used in the sound track? I think the second one was Dinosaur jr, and number three was Blink 182.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspanglish Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 Great vid !!Any chance we could get a list of the songs used in the sound track? I think the second one was Dinosaur jr, and number three was Blink 182.... In the first vid: Mountain Song: Jane's Addiction (Album: Nothing's shocking) Gone away: Dinosaur Jr (Album: Green Mind) Nice guys finish last: Green Day (Album: Nimrod) In the trilogy it's all by Supergrass, mostly from the albums: "I should coco" & "In it for the money". Seb, I'm waiting for the buffer to load on yours... if it's got Foo, say no more... I actually have quite a wide taste in music... I was thinking of doing one to a classical piece one day... and then there's this one fom last year...

V4 Rosso Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 The reflection of the tach in the windscreen makes it look like you have a Heads Up Display :fing02: episode 2 about 1:00min. when you pass the cruiser the rpms drop. How did you manage to do that? Also it looks like the rpm were something about 2k when you were behind him and going slightly uphill. Do you allready have the torro(olé)charger that your 5th gen is so torquey? :fing02: Same on other occasions, like when at about 1:40 you pass your buddies the rpms drop.

It's nothing really, I'm just THAT good!!! Hehehehe... nah!! I push with long legs "a la Flintstones". You yourself said it Rosso... it's a reflection, what's more, it's upside-down, so when you see the needle drop, on the real display it rises!! What you see is actually around the 5000 - 6000 RPM mark... in the screenshot you posted, if you look closer you'll se it's at about 6,000 RPM mark... hehehehe I thought that reflection was quite novel at first... now I find it annoying. How I can avoid it?? Got a new dark smoke DB screen on the way, so, it will probably be too dark to see anything!!!! :fing02: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V4 Rosso Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 You yourself said it Rosso... it's a reflection, what's more, it's upside-down, Aaawww, right, uspide down of course. :fing02: :491: :fing02: Maybe a polarising filter can reduce the amount of reflection.
