yeah mang! good meetin' ya.

Driving isn't all the fun. Meeting people and just hanging out is what makes the Dragon events so memorable. Although the driving is pretty good too.

Very nice. What camera/mount setup do you have?
I was using a Panasonic PV-GS300 on a Modifry windscreen mount but modified with a Bogen swivel head.

Nice Rob and Bill!, sorry I missed it. I can't believe i didn't see all those Goldwings blowing past you as mentioned in someones streetfire critique.
Funny that I've never had any problem catching any kind of bike on the Dragon even driving 5/10ths, you guys must sure drive slow
Hopefully I'll make it up for DBR, I just got into a business partnership with a friend who lives N of Gainesville, GA, so I sould be up there scoping out some new roads later this summer.

Cheers,
Mike

Cool

AWESOME VIDEO !!! Can't wait to get down there to give it a try.

It great to see the S2K run hard for a couple of minutes instead a few seconds.

I really enjoyed the music of the V-Tec....

I currently have 1,400 miles on my S2K and it's just gettin' brokin' in at this point.

Thanks guys for showing me once again, I bought the right car.

negcamber

first off, nice vids. Looks like a great time, hopefully I can actually make it next year when I learn the car better.

In your second video you linked to, I noticed that you could hear a bit of noise when you let off the accelerator, is that clutch buzz? And if it is, was it also happening at lower RPM's (under 3k). I have an annoying buzz that seems to have the same frequency as clutch buzz but more of a vibration at low RPM's which I cannot figure out.

Hey...sorry I didn't see this question. It's heatsheild or O2 sensor buzz...haven't completely nailed it down. I have an updated clutch, so not clutch buzz.

awesome videos, thanks for posting

just one thing: considering the cars involved in the videos are s2ks, why is there background music? wouldn't everyone prefer to hear the engine/exhaust?
