It must be nice having enough free time and money to master a talent like that. I wonder how many cars that guy has wrecked learning to do that. That looks like a brand new car too.

I think I have seen videos of SUVs doing this without the ramps. I would love to learn how to do that.

I tested out using the iPhone5 headphones as an external mic to get rid of wind noise for onboard footage, it works pretty well!

Why do you need to cancel out wind noise inside the car?

Disgruntled Bovine posted:

Edit: Nevermind, I was wrong, the guy who cut him off didn't hit him. The guy chasing was just a pissed off idiot.

Yeah the Subaru driver didn't hit him (at least not until the end of the video :laugh:). At around 18 seconds you see the camera car overtake the subie, perhaps cutting him off in the process, though that's not clear from the video. What I think is a WRX sedan then cuts him off in return, starting off the chase. Although I understand what he's saying ("I'm not going to calm down until he wipes out :argh:") that doesn't really help explain his reasoning because he's a moron.

I taped the earbuds to the rear near the plate then ran the wire into the hatch, although for the external Ill probably need a second piece if tape to keep the wire from flopping around. You need to experiment with mic placement a bit depending on how loud the car gets, I placed it based on idling the first time but the car is so absurdly loud at WOT the mic distortion just made it sound like William Durant screaming "HOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUCK"

If it's not clear, this requires the ear buds with the built in mic. Sounds obvious but I know you could plug old school headphones into a 1/4" mic jack and use it as a microphone on a mixer so I thought I would clarify.

I've seen plenty of videos where the driver is getting mad at the co-driver because the co-driver is incompetent. This is the first one I've seen that's the other way around. That said, I think the co-driver is more scared and frustrated than mad.
