Nice Video Good picture quality. What camera do you use? I am looking to buy vacucams & a video recorder & I don't even know where to start looking brandwise

p.s... After watching your video I recognized some boot stripes from a friends MCS in a still shot from another video link to the right so I clicked to check it out & freak my freak I was in the video. It was of the Dragon parade from MOTD4

Sweet - I watched the whole thing - then when you pulled into Tabcat I realized that I was 3-4 cars behind you - very cool.

Wonderful video! It amazes me how well maintained the road surface of the Dragon is. Those yellow and white lines were hypnotic!

And here's one from me:

Midnight on the Dragon

The full run was about 20 minutes in real time. So I accelerated mine too, and cut it to match the music.

I use a (www.stickypod.com) suction cup mount and a Panasonic MiniDV cam.

Those that want the video, just pm me a place where I can send it. It will be around 80MB....

I put some full runs up on Google Video, because they accept large files and don't have a time limit.

Full Midnight on the Dragon Run
