RE: Mustang in the twisties..
My dad averages like 70 mph on that road in his jeep.. scares the heck out of me.

Sometimes we would slow down to smell the roses and take in the scenery, but when you did it everyday going to work, it got to be old hat. We'd never take two lanes ona blind corner. Mightnot havebeen very smart but we were smarter than that.

The "locals" do that all the time.. pretty scary. I guess if you have to drive 15 miles down a curvy road just to get milk at the store.. you don't take your time getting there.

I love roads like that. Reminds me of back home in the Ozarks. Used to drive in 2 lanes on turns to keep it on the road. White Lightning style.

Oh, and now a days. People make V6's to eat up 8's. Plus it is all the driver. Don't know why I put this on here. But, felt like saying it.

I agree... But I would have probably gone a little faster if both hands were on the wheel 
I could have gone at least 10-15mph faster... As I really didn't push it for the video. Plus, if I didn't have the camera in hand, I would have had my hand on the shifter anyway (drove a stick for years and can't keep my hand off the shifter).

looks like a lot of fun, but don't you think you should have a passenger film while you drive? just want to keep all mustang drivers on the road that's all!

RE: Mustang in the twisties..
Nooo....I only do that at night when I turn off the headlights and use night-vision mode on the camera....

word up. as long as you weren't looking at the viewfinder while driving? cuz that'd be unsafe.
