A Tunnel in Mexico

This is not the best quality video or sound, but in the spirit of the board I wanted to share it. My wife recorded this on her phone on a recent trip to Mexico. I had the top down and the Tubis screaming through a tunnel. It sounded great in person. The video makes it sound pure evil. There was a LEO on the other side of the tunnel, luckily with someone else pulled over.

I am seriously considering a GoPro at this point after going to a couple of events. I love the cars that have 3 or 4 on them.

Try the trick Dan and I use - buy a digital voice recorder and tape it to the rear of your car (near the exhaust pipes but out of the wind). Then use video editing software to sync up the sound when you get home. I use GoPro but Dan uses another brand - the process is the same.

Here is example of the technique where I'm following Brad (Deadgame) with the video on my car but the voice recorder on his Black M6:
