Aston 'adventure' videos...

[SELON]

As we are in the soggy, cold days of 2016 I thought I'd reminisce about warmer days and start a thread for your videos of your Aston adventures. Plenty of people have gopros or the like and some even have drones!

Will start it with a clip of the drive from Marianske Lazne to Karlovy Vary last June. Around 20sec in you can see the Satnav view of the road to give you an idea. Not the Stelvio, but a nice twisty country road with not too much traffic, following the river.

I enjoyed the vision part of your film BigScotty, but could not hear your wonderful AM exhaust sound.

After various experimental failures, I found that using a long extension cable from the camera to a microphone secured in the boot, works quite well. Ancillary sounds such as rattles and wind noise are absent, and the recorded exhaust sound is fairly realistic.

Hope you did not mind be commenting on that point.
Loved your close up sheep scene.

Hi Jon,

No one is more disappointed in the lack of exhaust noise in my videos more than me. Unfortunately, my camera's are so old (gen 1 gopro) they don't allow the connection of an external mic!

I guess it's a good excuse to upgrade ;-)

Great roads! I can see why so many road tests are done in Wales.

There's something mesmerising about this video with the camera mounted so low. I haven't seen that viewpoint very often and it's very effective.

Was this really over three years ago? https://vimeo.com/51986197 Most of the aston forum regulars from that time seem to have moved on. Happy times

Love that video Scotty. Some fast moving objects there!

Fifteen Shades of Grey...better than the book!

Moved on but not passed on!

Jockman has returned, hasn't he? Did make me smile when the music changed for Jockmans appearance. To be fair, he can't be slower than me!

Long time no speak Steve hope you and Louisa are well.

That was a bit before my time that trip but made me laugh nonetheless, especially the Jockers bit

Indeed, it was a good day out that one, sadly I didn't have a camera for it though.

Hiya Jeff, we're great thanks, how're you. It must've been only just before your time. Still visit here regularly but as I'm astonless at the moment not really had much to comment.

All fine with me thanks. It was probably only just before to be fair, your December 2012 run was my first run out. I remember not being able to sleep that night when I got in despite about a 400 mile trip and early start because I was buzzing still, great fun.

You still got the AMG then I presume? Anything AM shaped out there that takes your fancy?

[4Q]

The C63 has gone and I have an A45 at the moment. I keep looking but only in the way a kid presses his nose against a sweetshop window. At the moment we're spending quite a between here and the Alps so not really ready to get anything yet. One day I will be back.

That's a good video travelogue.

He did a great piece in a McLaren also. Personally, I like his style.

Great advert for driving in Scotland also!
