Virtual Dragon Run

If this has been posted before, sorry...I looked around for a while and didn't see it.

For those of you jonesin' for the Dragon, or those of you unlucky enough to not be able to go (like me!), you can get your fix. You can use Google street view to do a Dragon run!

If I may be so bold...

Another option would be one of my videos.

Shot from a MINI, and a mic down by the exhaust. It's like you're standing in the back seat of my convertible! Click on the video bottom right and change 360 to a higher definitoin 480 view...
This year I've upgraded from a 720 to a full 1080 camera. And I'll try to get some video when other MINI's are around for a change.

Parts of another run...

The Parade...

and a previous year... not High Definition

Great Videos.

Really impressive angle and great sound on them. Makes the wait even harder for my first Dragon!!

Think we could plug the Dragon into this for virtual runs?

Where do I get in line to get one of those!!!????

I've never been much into gaming especially driving ones because they lack the "seat of your pants" feel. That would fill the bill.
