[Herblenny]

Even though editors at MazdaSport magazine promised that it would be published before DGRR 2008 event, this never got published..

Since we worked hard to get this story out, i figure its time to post it here!!

Enjoy and let me know what you guys think!!

I wondered what ever became of that article. Now I know. I hope next year will finally be a successful trip for me. 3 years in a row and every year a failure.

[Whizbang]

i might make it out next year as well.

I'm with DRTHVDR too, no failures for me this year!!! (although they didn't happen until AFTER the dragon, I was much further from home when they did!)

DGRR BABY!

[Herblenny]

I'm More prepared for next year... We'll be doing videos, photos, etc...

What ever happened to all those car mounted video's from 2007? I'd love to see those.

[Herblenny]

Few are on Youtube..

[classicauto]

Yeah I think goodfellaFD3s has one floating around, pretty neat.

I found video's of the gap make it look MUCH easier to drive then it really is - still very cool though.

I've been looking for a wide angle DV camera... I wished I could use my Nikon lense to shoot video.. dang!

All the videos on youtube make the actual speed appear slow. We know how fast we're actually going but to the casual observer it looks painfully slow.
Just imagine how slow the video's are when someone is stuck behind a stupid Harley. Those WANNABE's should just get out of the way.

Yep! that's why i'm looking for wide angle camera.. makes it look faster.. or I need to raise the camera up!!

I thought that was going to say "imagine how slow the video's are when you're stuck on a night run behidn some POS red FC with a n00b dragon driver!"
