Default Man, it's great being so close to such a wonderful little drive.... (mBWW)

Sorry for the resolution, but it was a video day, so these are just little stills...

These 3 are from a little drive by myself on Wednesday.... Going back to B'ham to go to traffic court (I lost...) Just before I went over the bridge to start Chuck, I pass a Sheriff who was parked off the road about 40 feet... I was going about 100, ready to pass a grain truck. Granted, I started cursing, then realized the car was empty, and the Sheriff lived there. oh man....

And this is from Friday night, now we are just waiting on the video from GM...

What's it near? Bellis Fair or Fairhaven school (those are the only 2 landmarks that stick out in my head)<ul><li><a href="http://www.chuckanutscc.org/">http://www.chuckanutscc.org/</a</li></ul>

Closer to Fairhaven than Bellis... I actually watch them sometimes from my house (right above it)

Default Sorry, stills from the video camera, not actually from the video... I think they are 1.1mp..

I was going 100 because I saw the truck pull out way ahead of me, and didn't want to be stuck behind him going up Chuck... So I had to speed up just to catch up to pass him... I know, not very smart, but I was driving the A4 and sometimes I forget how easily that thing speeds along... The feeling of 100 in the Cq vs. 100 in the A4 is very different, obviously.

Default the video is pretty intense, but im not sure about that night mode....

too much exposure .i.e oncoming traffic and the headlights in the rearview. but DAMN that was a good run we had that night...you guys will have to drop by and peep the vid on the big speakers and our exhausts can shake the house
