Having fun with old tires

[Detlef]

Decide to recycle my nearly 10 year old tires.
I used a couple of GoPROs and a tripod mounted camera at 60fps for the slo-mo scenes.

Looks like you had a blast. The slo-mo looks cool at 60 fps.
Nice job with the music. Was that you on the lead guitar?

 

[Detlef]

Yes, that is me on the guitar, my other fun hobby.

Grow up Detlef!

 

[Detlef]

Nah, being a grown up is overrated ;-)

Great job with the guitar!
I have a solid rosewood telecaster I bought new in '86. There were only 3 in Ohio when I bought it. It has no fretboard because the whole neck is just a big chunk of rosewood as well as the body!
You should see people's arms drop to the ground from the unexpected weight when they say "Can I see that?" and I hand it to them... I got in the habit of saying "It's heavy..." as I hand it to them to protect it.
Now with the ban on rosewood use and the trouble Gibson got in, I think it'll become even more rare than it already was when I bought it.

Hmm, I'm getting a little LTE influence in there.

 

[Detlef]

Love LTE, but this is my take on Satriani's Crystal Planet cover.

That looks cool. I will def have to play with my go-pro when its time for new tires.

 

[TonyCool]

That was epic

 

[killerviper]

I think I have to get myself a go-pro lol. that was awesome! does the go pro motorsports come with the mounts that you can use for the rear tire/interior shots?

Great vid

 

[Detlef]

Yes it comes with the suction cup mount.

[SilverV]

Somewhere around there !!

I need some tires on another 700hp car, looks as though that spot was meant to be "Hide Tanning" !!

Very entertaining video.
