If you take the "f4eIzFq7844" portion of your link and put it inside the youtube tags it'll embed on the forum so you can watch it without having to leave NAM

I prefer driving vids without music myself as the sound of the engine revving up and down just sounds more raw and fits driving videos more. I like the way you set up your camera and its pov though. What's your setup? I'm gonna have to look up Hicks Road since its close by. Getting tired of Mt Hamilton and Calaveras Rd.

Shannon Rd in LG to Hicks and around the back side of Quicksilver park is a great run. Be careful though as I know of at least one R53 that's kissed some rail on that road and a rock that punctured an oil pan in another R53. Don't forget to venture up Mt. Umunhum road to the gate for the great views. If you want a bit more distance, take McKean/Uvas down to Gilroy, then head down Hecker Pass over Mt. Madonna to the coast. Early weekend mornings with light traffic allows for more fun. Keep the rubber side down.
