Default TX2K14: The Lost Files

Bad Bowtie Productions filmed from my car so they have the majority of the footage. However I came across a few from my Go Pro and Sony Handycam.Not the greatest video but figured I'd share what I had in honor of TX2K15 being 3 months away.

I attend to have fun and that's exactly what happens each and every year.My car in this video had a fresh Mantic 9000 clutch installed a month before the trip and the car was making a solid 780/658 at the time. Enjoy

Was that an asphalt road in some of those runs? I won't do asphalt its no good for me bro. That camera angle from the rear of your car kinda doesn't work well as I couldn't see the other cars etc... But I'm sure you saw that and will make the appropriate changes for next year. Good Video anyways.

No it was all brushed concrete on the toll roads.

I threw it in the middle because if I threw it on the right maybe the car would be on the other side and vice versa. I'll remed it next time with a head mount or put it outside.

Ok camera just looked dark like asphalt. Yeah I'm not judging as I've not figured out filming from my Go Pros yet either. Haven't made a decent video since like 2007-08.

Oh no we don't mess with the slick asphalt. Lighting is another reason I need to find a new location.

That Mantic was one of the best things I've bought.
