Teaser video :)

these are from MINIs Slay the Sleeping Dragon this Fall. I take the the dragon all-out in the early morning For those that have never been, take note that even though it was early morning on a Sunday, I took care to stay out of the other lane, as well as on the correct side of the white line unless I knew there was a wide area.

No exhausts were harmed in the making of this video , however I did blow off my Minspeed one-ball pipe for a time. It re-sealed later, and all was good for the ride home. MAN it scared me though

Enjoy! The Tar Heel peeps got a real kick out of this. You'll have to excuse the narration by my copilot

Oh yes, I will be there again and again for MSSD - The 11 hour drive is worth it - last time, my passenger went through three movies each way! We'll need to rent some more DVDs come this fall...

Well done videos, but the gratuitous line-crossing worries me... Stay on your side of the Yellow, mates!
