The Project Pad

Awesome, I love Mexico.

140 is fast. 180 is... different. I lol that the 4k speed is pinned at 140. No matter how fast I make my car dad's car will always win if the road is long enough... sigh.

You guys are nuts. I Just got up to 115 (gps confirmed) the other night and that was sketching me the hell out.
for balls.
for awesome cars

BOOM!

looks FUN. Wish it was just a bit brighter but not much you can do about that.

So is the oscillation issue sorted or still there? Can you notice it in the car or does it only show up in the logs?

It was a blast! Doug's car made 350ish wheel on the dyno ( I forget the actual #), so I am pretty happy with how Oceanic did. If I use LC, I am positive up to 100 I would be ahead, it's when I get into 5th he starts to really pull on me. As for the oscillation, it only shows up in the logs. I can't feel it at all.

Ohh Ben, ben ben, positive 100%? haha maybe we need to run again. no extra people in the car. i'll slap the GoPro on and we'll see.

Don't they allow daylight video in Mexico?!

lol great videos. I just love to see how much you are enjoying this thing! You are definitely making some good power

know what I want to do when I can't drive my car? watch someone else drive a car. take more vids. anything. vids anywhere, drive-bys etc. I want to hear this thing and see it rip from inside, outside, underneath, on top etc... DO IIIIIIIT

Thanks guy!!! Doug (supra), I and my buddy Zach in his Rx7 when for a great cruise today. Overall it was a great time! OH and we got TONS of go-pro footage. One thing I did learn today is that on a rolling start my little old Oceanic quiet well. (We have video proof)

POST THAT SUCKER UP DOUG!

Anyways, here are a few shots from the day.













and here is just a little drive-by video





On a side note, my knock phone showed up today, and that 140ish mph run, yaaa.... it snapped my speedo cable. :(

North East Mexico Cruise

From a roll Ben takes the Supra pretty well. I'm putting in a 3.5 bar MAP right now and trying to get a base tune so we can run again with me around 22psi. (Currently 16)


Messin Around in Mexico

Mexico sure is pretty this time of year.

Gotta love Mexico! We gotta do something about that wind noise.

Well I found out the knock off adapter for the external mic isn't compatible with the GoPro. So the whole time was internal mic=crap quality. I'm gonna try and gettin money back on the mic adapter and get a genuine GoPro adapter.

You guys are going to go to Mexican Jail.

Lets hope not.

How do you guys afford gas and money for the Toll roads too. I know that any road in those conditions in Mexico has to be a toll? Ben, don't wear that car out before BBQ4!!

My friend had good things to say about this from his experience http://cheesycam.com/gopro-hd-camera-furry-windscreen/

Don't worry John, Oceanic will survive to BBQ4 and hopefully long after as well!
