you'll probably have to get jimmy to answer those question hes on here but I havent seen him post for a long time he goes by hemicoupe
That has to be one of the best sounding video clips I have ever gotten off of the computer. Just makes me want to finish the Hemi going in my "T". Thanks for the motivation!
Holy shit that was awesome.. I have never ridden or driven in a hotrod ever. Seeing that and the MAD FABRICATORS footy gets me so pumped up...
Was it just me or were you all shiftin' when he was shiftin'!!??? I put it in full screen mode, turned the lights out and cranked it!! Wife thought I was havin a seizure cuz I was freakin out. Made her watch it too. Told her I was chubby and she felt it even!! Didn't do much for her. Man, that is why we do this shit eh? You just can't get that energy from anything else. I love the way the camera moves around when he shifts. KILLER!!!!
That IS what it's all about!!!! DAMN that thing sounds WILD! I have no words to describe how that made me feel!!!!! Rat...
What the hell?! I downloaded the Windows installer and I still get get to the video. This is drivin me nuts! I want in on the fun...dammit! Nothing, at all, happens when I click on the camera icon and the only other place to clicck is the windows media link. sheesh.
Now that was great! I've got a smile on my face from ear to ear. Now the other guys in the office are telling they're stories from "back in the day"
Had to watch it again this morning. Wake up, brush teeth, crank up a sweet sounding hemi.. Now I can go on with my day. Time to order the pipes for my little elephant..
ha ha, I had to watch it a few more times too! I had to take my coupe out yesterday and step on the loud pedal! Barnett, you gotta figure it out, it's too cool not to! man I have got to get me a video camera! Paul
Our shitty computers at work block us from seeing it. I guess I have to wait til I get home... I showed it to my 2 year old last night. For a half hour all we did was "do it again daddy!" What a boy! Jay
I had to finally go to the site and look under videos.....then I could get it to work. At first I watched it with no sound since the kids were in bed....I thought.. SO? Then I turned on the sound....Man I am glad I did!!
I took that same ride down that same road with Jimmy one night... And my seat was pre-warmed by James Hettfield. I would love to see what that car would do in a quarter. Easy 12 I would think as it hooks up pretty good too...
Ohh and just for shits and giggles here's the old video of my early morning neighborhood alarm clock... http://www.jalopyjournal.com/BurnOneDown/kcsp.mov Kinda fun to compare sounds. Hemis are loose and throaty while sbcs are a little "revvier". And the above are prolly my two favorite sounds in the world... Add a stout flathead and low cube, mutli-valve, F1 motor to the mix and you have the four most pure automotive sounds in the world...
When I was at the Pile-up Lukester had his lil chevy pickup with 6 carbs on a W motor. I said to him "are you gonna let me sit in this thing or WHAT!" He said "Get in there and fire it up" So I did, it sounded a lot like that video except I wasn't moving. AWESOME!!!!!!!
Man, I am so stoked that everyone got to enjoy that video. I enjoyed doing it, that is the first time I have driven my hot rod in a long time. The Flying Dutchman rules, I am glad he talked me into doing that. I love that car. It really has been neglected the past few years. Its kinda of like an old war horse. I really appreciate all of your positive responses. Ryan that was a fun day, Fun weekend. thanks again everyone for the kind comments. Jimmy White Ps. Ryan I miss you.
I'm stuck with Barnett here in Macintosh hell. I've never been able to get WMP to work on my machine - but then I've never really worked at it either. There was no rock star to warm my seat but I was riding shotgun in that video of Ryan's car...that video caught about half of what went on. His foot stayed in it until we had swapped lanes a few more times...I almost cried like a little girl.
why do you guys have problems with windows media on your mac. I watched it numerous times on mine last night. go here and get windows media player http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=25ca4358-4cda-4dc5-a5ec-c459958be0ac&displaylang=en for mac. Then you might have to download the file no problem hold control and click the mouse on the link and save link as. or if you set up internet explorer to use windows media player to play those files even better. That link is for the os X version of media player I have an os 9 one too just dont know where i got it anymore. heres the link fgor windows media player for os 9 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=75ee2b64-5184-422a-91b6-20eed03e6175&displaylang=en
I'll try to put up a Quicktime version for you guys... I hope it'll not be too big... Those little movies need a lot of memory on the website... Oké, I've got a quicktime version already... Quality isn't that good, but what the heck, the sound is good! Haha! We'll put it online tomorrow night... That's like Thursday morning for you guys overthere in the U.S.... [I was just in time to edit this post I think, hah!]
