Here are my videos from the Thursday morning run, which were among my best runs of the week. Each of these videos includes Hellbender and the Dragon. First is going up and second is coming back down.

I was so disappointed that I had forgotten my GoPro at home.
We also need to educate folk about backing off of slower traffic. While it is all fun following a fellow ZDayZ-er on the Tail, I saw a couple of Miatas following at about two feet off a motorcyclist rear tire. Being a rider myself, that raised my ire.. not only do you have to navigate the Tail, but now you have to worry about the jackass behind you.

I thought most cars were more than eager to get out of the way, even giving point bys in sections they probably shouldn't have. Those motorcycles though. Its as if they were going slow out of spite. Multiple areas to pull off safely, instead they rode 5mph below the posted speed limits.

Here's some in cabin footage (mic setup inside too) of my way back to fontana. at one point I come around a turn and a biker is leaning into my lane. HD ins't available yet, but you can clearly see it. I gave him a little tisk tisk, because I was able to get out of the way. If I weren't looking completely around the turn, it would have been a bad day for both of us.
I love the way the AAM 3" single exit sounds inside the cabin. It's so raw haha. Even my mic does it no justice. Sounds stock at idle through 3200 RPM, then at 3300 RPM it becomes a whole new exhaust.

Great video, Crux. Thanks for sharing. I noticed in your sig that you are running a 34 row oil cooler. What kind of temps did you see running the Dragon and/or Hellbender? I was pushing 250 and wasn't cool with that, so I ordered a 25 row when I got home. Hoping that will be sufficient. |
