Got to have a little holiday week fun with the CE! Bought a Stage 2 Splitter from Apsis back on Black Friday, and for Christmas, my family bought me the Stage 2 Spoiler Winglets. Spent yesterday installing them both...love the results. Just the right amount of "over the top" now!





Then...during the week of Christmas, I found a good deal on an ebay auction for one of the GT Spirit 1:18 GSCE Models, so I treated myself. Found a cool little showcase on Amazon that has four little LED light towers to show it off. Can plug it in, or run off battery:

The 2019 California registration sticker is almost the right color blue :-)

Purchased last October, #816 auto, sport seats. I’ve added a few things to the car. Window tint, side and rear reflectors smoked, Hawk ceramic brake pads for no dust, Scrape Armor under the front spoiler, Rim Savers blue stripe on wheels, Blue vinyl SPORT overlay on front fender Grand Sport emblem, and of corse a car cover. Wife Marilyn loves to drive it too. We’ve already put almost 1100 miles on it. Loving the dry weather but that is coming to an end tomorrow. I really like the Rim Savers blue stripe on the wheels. The color is a perfect color match to the stripes.

Default SD Card

FYI,I don't know if anyone else had this problem, but when I put in a new SD Card in the memory slot, the PDR would not read the Card. I had to reformat the Card from EXFAT32 to FAT32 and now it works.

Yes, that's correct. Because it only supports FAT32 it limits the size of the recordings as well due to the max file size of that format (a little over 4 GB). So if you're recording something really long, it will just stop when it hits 4 GB and will not start a new file. That makes it about 1 hours and 40 min per recording.

You know, I reformatted the Ultra 64GB SD Card to 64GB FAT32 and the PDR says 1562 minutes unused. I have not used it yet, what do you think?

That sounds about right I think. I have a 256GB card and it shows over 6,000 minutes when it is empty. That math seems to work out....

Hi Ken, I am heading to Spring Mountain again on March 22-25 for Level One. I have a brand new SD card and my car is in storage for winter. I want to make sure I have the card formatted correctly when I get there...Can I format the SD card on board in the PDR or does it need to be formatted ahead of time.

Also...apologies to DWS44...when I replied to his lighted display case, the quote didn't come up correctly per my previous post. Thanks!!
