Another "spirited" vid.
Since my forum and the 2 Cobra forums didn't pass negative judgement on my 1st spirited driving vid, I thought I would share one more. If I'm wearing out my welcome, just let me know. This was on 88 going to the car show in Fallon, Nevada. On hwy 50 (which is closed for 2 weeks) the passing lanes are few and short. 50 would be my normal route for trans-Sierra travel and has been years since I drove 88. Had I known this passing lane on 88 was as long and steep as it was, I would have waited my turn and stayed in the fast lane till cars ahead of me got past the slower drivers. On hwy 50, everyone does 35~45 mph on the 2 lane parts, and when the passing lanes come up, the group speeds of to 65~70 and just stay in the passing lane, so I will shoot by on the right.
Still can't figure out how to post a video here, duh.

Bob,
I like the way you have the camera mounted. It takes away all of the wind noise and the videos are great. I also like your car.

This is how I'm geared, 73 mph = 1750 rpms. On the last run to SoCal, 24.6, 30.2, 15.9, 28.2 mpg. The 15.9 was because was tired of just putzing.
I hope this works, 392Cobra gave me some advice.

Bob,
I will try to give you an example of how to post You Tube Videos here. First you go to the Video and Copy everything after the = sign. In the Example below I put what you would copy in red.
Example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= y3VJrWrNWIw&feature=feedlik
Here you would copy from y3VJ on to the end. Then when you want to put it into the post paste that part in and put the YT tags around it.
Example: [ yt]XXXXXXXXXXXXX[/yt] The first bracket [ must be right next to the y in this URL.

I'm trying to entice others to post videos. You don't need a GoPro, this was taken with a plain jane Sony Cyber-Shot digital camera set on movie mode. If your like me, you have a late model digital camera that you use just for stills.
