Show us your driving videos

In North Wales, there is a zero tolerance. You'll get fined and points for going 31mph in a 30... Which is no fun because North Wales has epic roads!

[RX_37]

It doesn't matter if you speed as long as you don't get caught or bother anyone else and drive like a sensible person and not a jackass. I drive 90 km/h on 80 km/h roads every day on country roads. A lot of people does.

[Sponge]

Yeah. The local Police around here are fine (mostly) with us exceeding the speed limit on motorways and what not. Obviously if we're doing 90mph in 60mph traffic, then we'll get pulled.

 

I'm a right sod for "pointing and squirting" the bike (Meaning, going around a corner and then whacking the throttle open until I hit redline)

[Andreas¹]

I think this would be fun to do, if I had a camera... and a car. :hmmm:

[calster17]

Out where I am, the Police are near enough never seen outside of Aberdeen(Biggest city in the area), or the bigger towns. The more you go up to Deeside & Cairngorm way(where the mountains are) you don't see any!

Makes it real good for testing your mates cars, ("insured" of course;)) and on some of the roads you can have spirited driving no problem(can see far enough down the road to see whats coming).As long as you do everything you can to make sure other road user's are not going to get harmed, Thats the way I look at it. just don't pus past you & your car's limits! Safety comes first if you ask me, espically in these roads!

 

Dam, I need to get a video next time Im up on them roads!Been awhile since I was up there:cry:

[Sponge]

I need to find a way to record my bike journeys with my phone Absolutely nowhere to mount it on the bike.

 

EDIT. Ebay to the rescue! Bike suction mount for the Galaxy S II for £4.75, Get in!

[Ryzza5]

Can the phone's recording frame-rate keep up with your bikes acceleration? :p

 

 

(Not dissing the phone, just complimenting the bike).

[Baldy]

Video number 2, much faster roads and plenty more bouncing from the camera.

[video=dailymotion;xnw702]

[Ryzza5]

I like your account name, Bald Red Mazda - have never seen a bald car before :lol: Haven't heard that song (rapture) in years - must be about a decade. :)

 

 

Better watch the rest of the video... :snack: Wait, were you eating something @ 9:20?

 

 

 

And now I'm gonna be sick after all that shaky video :ill:

[Baldy]

Haha, yes I was getting some chewing gum out of the box. And I noticed the video is very shaky, going to see if I can find a way to stabilise the holder, doubt it though.

[Ryzza5]

Perhaps some elastic anchoring would do the trick (or pull the mount off the windscreen).

 

It seems the mount is anchored fine, just the phone in the mount is shaking.

[Baldy]

Yeah, maybe finding something that could prop it up would work. I'll investigate on my day off in the week

[Ryzza5]

Yeah, or just search on YouTube to see other car mounts tested to see what's more stable (i.e.

)

[GTAMADDOG]

I think I'll have to venture into Wales one day and hit some of the roads around the Brecon Beacons, they'll be a lot more interesting than the roads around here. Could've gone today actually, but Sunday is car cleaning day, and it's a bit too late in the day now.

 

The only problem with the roads around here is that you could go fast given the chance, but 9 times out of 10 you'll get stuck behind an elderly person out for a Sunday drive for something to do (even if it isn't Sunday), if not a tractor that won't pull in anywhere to let traffic past.

 

Another problem I've encountered since this thread was made is that I now want a GoPro camera but I can't afford one :(

[Ryzza5]

Converted and uploaded some footage in the archives. This is long before I got my DSG shifter steering wheel:

 

 

 

 

 

I haven't converted the rest of it yet.

vtec sound from front, magnaflow rasp from behind :btup

[randomsox10]

Very nice VTEC there Dan. Not really a fan of Civics (or any other Japanese car for that matter) but that sounds real good.

[Dan G]

Cheers mate :) A friend of mine got a passenger video last week once I get that I'll stick it up.

[Ryzza5]

Anyone got new videos?

[Dan G]

Never got hold of the video of my car, it's stuck on a mates phone.

[GTAMADDOG]

I was recording one yesterday on my way back home (was going to be a timelapse video), until I got home and found out that I hadn't mounted the camera properly and for most of the journey it was pointing up at the sky even though it looked like it hadn't moved at all :mad:

 

Would've been boring anyway I suppose :p

[Ken]

Borrowing my friend's GoPro for the week :happyroll:.

 

Here I am driving to tech college. I'll post the one going home as soon as it's done uploading.

 

 

EDIT: Here is the other vid:

 

[GWTBialy]

That's my Honda Civic 1.8i-VTEC 0-100km/h acceleration with ESP turned on. I will record second attempt with ESP setting to off.

And there is my second attempt. Unfortunatelly, in rainy weather, but result is better. I will try to do it on dry road with ESP off next time.
