MMM Stick...bored video's
My radio funcks around with turns, so it's only on for he long interstate trip to school and back.
It's actually on the spanish AM station it likes to default to during first vid :P
ill have to see if i can get a video of my pos in the mean time heres my old cummins http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=...90&view=videos
Like i said, radio funcks around.
I forget what tires i have on it, but they actually rub the inner fenders on the front while turning. Think i went 2 complete sizes bigger. I wanna say 285/75/17 but i dont think that's it. So it takes ALOT to break them loose, open diff helping.
I'm 5'11". I always have the front edge of the seat all the way up, butt all the way down, then seat back at a good angle and the whole thing way forward, my knees stay bent and lined up with turn signal bar or so. Helps hold me in the seat, for road + SCCA purposes. So yea it's cramped, but i don't really move a whole lot. I'd prefer the headrest be a bit taller, but oh well.
Also, for the little merging stunts and what not ( speed limit is 70 at the on ramp, traffic speed is usually +10) i usually run it out the back door till i'm up to speed....about a quart mile or so if it's open...if i see a pack ahead i can draft off, i adjust accordingly to get in the draft and start saving fuel where I can. especially 18 wheelers.
What about keys? I only have *counts* 11 of them...
SCCA run (load actually put me up on 2 wheels on the quick lefty, i checked the frame by frame..my videographer said i was one of the few who chose the line and braking method I did..stab and turn, while still having alot of right foot in it):

camera mount (hard to hold the whole assembly):

Like i said, this is all on tires that rub the front inner fenders, as well.
