We were out to get some video footage of the car being ran today, but our drone footage went sideways when the drone crashed. It was being flown under a high bridge and we suspect a hawk attacked the drone as it dropped about 80' from the bridge deck to the river below. We ended up finding it submerged in about 5' of water but it was too far from the shore to recover and none of us felt like swimming today.

The resulting video is the footage captured enroute to our chosen film site from a GoPro angle inside the car...and some handheld video my son took. Crank it up and enjoy.

It won't be long and this one will also be put away Frank.

Going to try and put some more miles on it later this week and next before changing the fluids and parking it for the year. The season is quickly drawing in on a close.

Got the Daytona Z out for a good shakedown run yesterday and managed to put another 50 or so miles on it as fall is now upon us. It was a great little cruise, but it's back in the box for the off season and will perhaps stay there until spring.

Hope you enjoy this little video we put together yesterday.

About 500 miles to do it right. Then dump the oil, and do with it as I wish...so I was told.

I have about 200 on it now, but in all likeliness...

I will have sold the car before it hits 500.

Thanks.

I wish we all had roads like this to cruise on. Last time I drove around Chicago I recall talking about how much concrete there was, but how little freedom it felt like when compared to up here. Those toll booths had a lot to do with that I think. Up here it's just wide open road...very different feeling when it comes to cruising, but all good.

Cheers my friend!
