Gopro Hero 3 placement test. Audi A3 APR stage 3

Merry Christmas from Wifey and kids, they got me the Gopro hero3 Black edition with lots of extra little swag and attachments. Consequently this is also the first video of my A3. Its a 2006 with all kinds of goodies that I'll go into details later. Just a taste , APR stage III 340hp w/93 octane 363 Hp w/100 octane and timing adjustments. I attached the Gopro to the door w/the suction cup mount. They say its good for up to 200mph! I'll have to test that later. I'm running on 19x8.5" front, 19x9.5" rear Miro STP-3 wheels with 225/35 front, 235/35 rear ET48 offset w/no spacers.

Actual footage of crew embarking in a lifeboat during a drill session on the USNS Comfort. USNS Comfort (T-AH-20) is the third United States Navy ship to bear the name Comfort, and the second Mercy-class hospital ship to join the navy fleet. The USNS prefix identifies the Comfort as a non-commissioned ship owned by the U.S. Navy and crewed by civilians from the Military Sealift Command (MSC). In accordance with the Geneva Conventions, USNS Comfort and her crew do not carry any offensive weapons. Firing upon the Comfort would be considered a war crime as the ship only carries weapons for self-defense. Like her sister ship USNS Mercy, Comfort was built as a San Clemente Class oil tanker in 1976 by the National Steel and Shipbuilding Company. Her original name was SS Rose City and she was launched from San Diego, California. Her career as an oil tanker ended when she was delivered to the Navy on December 1, 1987. Now, as a hospital ship, Comfort's new duties include providing emergency, on-site care for U.S. combatant forces deployed in war or other operations. Operated by the Military Sealift Command, Comfort provides rapid, flexible, and mobile medical and surgical services to support Marine Corps Air/Ground Task Forces deployed ashore, Army and Air Force units deployed ashore, and naval amphibious task forces and battle forces afloat. Secondarily, she provides mobile surgical hospital service for use by appropriate U.S. government agencies in disaster or humanitarian relief or limited humanitarian care incident to these missions or peacetime military operations. Comfort is more advanced than a field hospital but less capable than a traditional hospital on land.[2] When not actively deployed, Comfort is kept in a state of reduced operations in Baltimore harbor. She has been used many times over the years and kept ready to ship out of Baltimore with five days notice.

Quick startup and exhaust note of Vitaliy Chiley's Supercharged e39 ///M5. The whine you hear is normal. Its just the shortcomings of the recording equipment. Nice guy, and a beast of an automobile. He drove his whip to Bimmerfest East 2012 all the way from the longhorn state without a hitch.

Just a quick walkaround of an m6 and an m3 at MPACT, a car show that focused primarily on BMW M series. BMW M, also known as M-Technik or just "M" (for Motorsport) was initially created to facilitate BMW's racing program, which was very successful in the 1960s and 1970s. As time passed, BMW M began to supplement BMW's vehicles portfolio with specially modified higher trim models, for which they are now most known by the general public. These M-badged cars traditionally include modified engines, transmissions, suspensions, interior trims, aerodynamics, and exterior modifications to set them apart from their counterparts. All M models are tested and tuned at BMW's private facility at the Nürburgring racing circuit in Germany.

Couple of yo's in their matching m3's. Not really much to say about this one. I mightv'e actually thrown up in my mouth.

Copperplate goodness. I was expecting Ice Cube to pop out of this beaut, but I regress. This old girl was the Belle of the Ball. You just gotta love the character and ingenuity that went into this build. Props to you guy!

Exit operations over at the show-n-go, H20international Ocean City,MD 2012. If youv'e never been. GO! This is a must for all those who are stricken with the obsession of cars like me. Everything from mild to wild modded classes, custom one offs, and complete old skool stockers.

Bagged and slammed, a couple of Das Germans @ H20i in ocean city 2012

Saw this little gem tucked away while getting ready to hit the boards in Ocean city @ H2Oi 2012.

Operation exit @ H2Oi. Low slung Mercedes/BMWs and VDubs everywhere. Cops were getting used to Das Germans by the end of the weekend. Although they were still heavily ticketing people.(See my other Video of the cop bust)

Quick clip of a 2002 tii turbo @ bimmerfest east 2012

H20international Footage of the show-n-go . Lots of stance projects and of course the guy who did a couple of donuts for the crowd. First smoke show of the event. And the boys in blue didn't see a thing

Walkaround of APR's Audi R-8 @ H2Ointernational 2012 Ocean City Maryland

Just some fashion accessories and a bomb strapped to the roof. A real show stopper @ H2Oi 2012 this year!

WATCH THE MIDDLE LANE @ THE LIGHT!!!!! "The Brick"- otherwise known the old skool volvo sleeper-esque station wagon looking thing. A favorite for enthusiasts given the potential for power as seen in this example. The show and go got stopped by Ocean Citys(MD) finest as he was displaying his wares. Limiter hits hard as wastegate to atmosphere is ridiculously loud. Props to this awesome sleeper!!!!!

These are the wheels that are being built after we got them back from paint. They are BBS Super RS 19"s. We decided with gold hardware. Not sure on the choice of centercap yet. The Red is ohh so tempting, but you seriously have to be a player to pull this off. Hmmmm. Thoughts? The decision of frontloading the wheels was decided on necessity. In this case a 2 piece wheel;The inner piece (aesthetic weave) is mounted on the other side of the lip to accommodate the larger brake calipers from the Audi TT RS.

Quick video of the in process engine swap. You can see the actual transplant has been performed, and the R engine is on the shop cradle. Waiting on the BBS Super RS(To be frontloaded for TT RS brake caliper clearance) to come back from paint.

BMWs, The Turner Models, and Much more!!

This instruction video show some of the basics of using a sand/media/bead blaster. It is done using a vertical bead blasting cabinet. An custom turbo exhaust manifold for a Volkswagen VR6 that was sitting in filth was used for an example.

The M coupe, also referred to as the " Clown Shoe" for its odd shape, The coupe is 2.7 times stiffer than its convertible counterpart, resulting in superior handling. M Coupes built between 1998 and 2000 are fitted with two different engines, depending on the destination market. These engines are the same ones used in the 1996 to 1999 BMW M3.

BMW M3 dyno pull @ mpact 2012 . It made a respectable 350 @ the wheels. The owner was looking for 365, but that wasn't going to happen w/o some e85 or higher boost(read tune)
