    BJ video

    Oh you pervs....

    In late May my girlfriend and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary with a 2-day getaway on the coast, and I had my cam with me (it's STILL not what you think ) - this is some of the footage we shot to and from.

    Hwy 1 is one of the most amazing roads in the world - I've had the privilege of driving from San Francisco to L.A. on it in the past, it's just incredible as far as a 'car guy' road is concerned.

    The car is a bone stock 1999 Protege, 1.6L 5sp, but it was very spry - however, I did have to behave as I had the lady in the car (and it's her car to boot) and the route was pretty well patrolled.

    I loved the combination of sunshine over the water with the fog rolling in off the mountains, and beach/cliff scenery, as well as the never ending scenery.

    Sorry about the sudden ending at 3:51, the damn video software kept crashing and I said '**** it' and just got this much done.

    What you see is a snippet of about 3 hours of driving in those conditions. If my patience returns I'll make a slightly more expanded version, which includes rear-facing camera angles and higher resolution.

    The camera is a GoPro Hero HD, the resolution (before the compression and edit work) was 720x1280 wide angle.

    I hope the next video I shoot on HWY 1 should be off the 323!

    Enjoy!

      Ah yes. Last time I was on that road we got lots and lots of eye candy in the form of a Ferrari club, convoying the other direction. Musta been 150 cars more or less...a Countach sticks in my memory rather vivdly, it was white with neon red pinstripes all over the silly thing. Looked like a Tron prop. It wasn't anywhere NEAR as cool as the Testarossa. Naw, not the miami vice garish one, the one that kicked everyone's ass in the fifties. Gawd wotta gorgeous car...

      '90 AWD Protege, full GTR drivetrain swap, ~320 whp daily driver, RIP, and
      '90 AWD Protege, yet another GTR swap, Open class rallycar with a Toyota GT4 gearbox swap, thus crossing the line between hobby and mental illness. And a Brabus E55 K8, removing all doubt.
