I should shoot more static stuff with my long lens. Next time.

I've been experimenting with tilting the camera a lot lately (did the same thing for the Laguna Seca shoot).



I didn't leave you out @PMok and @finch1750

Here is a little taste of today's drive.

[ame]http://youtu.be/fxGYJktePKs[/ame]

it's lonely at the front ... next time I will mount it rear facing and we'll have people take turns following directly behind me for better group driving shots.

my GoPro footage from Hwy 9 was not very good due to the mist/fogging. I need to figure out a way to keep the lens from misting. Has anyone tried putting rainX on the casing/lens? Anyways by the time we got to Skyline it cleared up a little but then it got foggy again... then my battery died shortly after reaching Alice's/Hwy 84.

Hi guys...Rick here back from the craziness of work/home/life

I wanted to attend this drive yesterday but something came up. Looks fun, I really wish I made it out!

[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WyeiYJLr-WY"]NorCal 86 Drive - Highway 9 and 35 to Alice's Restaurant - YouTube[/ame]


Highlights from yesterday's drive:




1) An elderly lady in a G37 pulled over in the middle of traffic to record the group rolling out.

2) Being stuck behind a stubborn IS350 for a good 5 minutes before he or she finally let us pass.

3) Getting to see a beautiful Ford GT40.













4) Redneck Benedict for breakfast.
