I'm working on the vids. I have a Gopro HD2 but the video came out a little messed up because I accidentally smeared sunscreen on the lens cover. Today I plan on detailing the Z to clean off all the bugs and grit from the road trip to Myrtle Beach.

And a very good morning to you as well Mr Gale

Im heading outside shortly to trim back the forest that is growning into my driveway seeing as how its surounded by woods. Lots of pricker bush branches have been trying to ruin my Z's paint. A few have managed to leave a few little scratches

Its time to exact my revenge on those bastards. I also need to rake out the stone at the end of the driveway, its a bit tore up and Im starting to bottom out. I know the Konis didnt lower it that much but it sure feels like it. Im scraping everywhere since the install. After I finish my duties as a homeowner Im gonna wash the Z and take her out for some pics. Havent got some good new shots in quite sometime.

Hey Ken, when you return from your drive let me know how you dealt with Plasti Dip overspray. I remember it really p1ssin you off

. I was pretty careless when doing my mirrors and got some on each door

GMORNING to everyone else

Just sold my first HD Hero and ordered the HERO2. Cant wait for it to get here

May I suggest the purchase of an external mic for better sound quality. I pretty much only sold my old GoPro for the new one cause it supports an external mic. The sound quality on the GoPro def leaves something to be desired, especially when filming motorsports! Here is a link to a mic a few of us are using

Audio-Technica Pro-24CM - Stereo Microphone PRO 24CM B&H Photo

IMWEZL · 04-29-2012, 11:05 AM

Thanks for the link on the external mic. I think I'll pick one of those up soon.

Here's a vid of me driving my a$$ off only to spin out at the end. This probably would have been my fastest run. From my count I think this could have been a high 39 second run which would had placed me right there with a Super Stock C5 Z06 running on Hoosiers.

LOL@over spray.
