Ricko's New Ride-'71 Baja

[motorbreath53]

MB had nothing to do with it.

...I had EVERYTHING to do with it.... though i'm not sure how. Those tires look pretty darn awesome Rick. Did you collect all 4?

Well... In that case, thanks MB!

Gary actually got 5. Including the spare. I got these 2. I just hope they aren't too tall...

Got to take the baja out for some fun over the holidays.

On the new trailer:



I did pull a skidmark and get stuck:



But it wasnt too hard to dig out:




My sisters dog loved the baja:

You spotted that huh?

I have about 40 minutes of video I need to edit down a bit, but I will try to get it up later today.

[Skidmark]

You make me proud! (sniff, sniff)

[motorbreath53]

Wait... I didn't know that baja bugs could go in the dirt...

[CopperBaja]

Still have your Christmas lights up, too.

Looking good Rick!

I'm not sure we want to see THAT video....

Here is the link for some edited down footage from the GoPro. You may want to mute your speakers. I had the mic on the wrong setting so it sounds horrible

Well as much as they love sitting in the garage in pieces... the dirt is where they really love to be

Still have your Christmas lights up, too.

Thanks Copper. Lights might just stay on there year round. They provide a nice illumination around the car at night.

Another video... I though it was a cool angle. I'm glad I went with the 14" shock instead of the 12". Cause it sure seems most of it is used...

[Hedrock]

Nice shot Rick! How fast were you going?

[Ol'fogasaurus]

You need new radio supression plugs, wires or both. I got the same thing with my pre-HD GoPro plus I got the squeek of the urethane bushings. Sensitive little buggers aren't they.

Hedrock. the shock video was taken at the same time as the first part of the first video above. I think my max speed was around 40 in the rough stuff and my GPS says I maxed out around 65 for the weekend.

Lee, I know for sure that my cameras were set on the wrong audio settings. I had them set up during some canoeing with my family to pick up all sound, and I never changed it back to motor sports setting. But if that doesnt work, maybe Ill just upgrade to the HD Hero
