Ok so no video here, but (first drive after header, intake, tune install) leaving the petrol station. I see a Ferrari 360 a few cars behind when I enter the road. Next set of lights he is one car behind me, on green I make a little noise, and instantly he overtakes to get in behind me, reving etc

(think he just wanted to hear the Mustang)

Anyway, merge onto freeway ahead 'efficiently', further down the road he pulls up next to me saying how good it sounds!

Not bad from a F360.

Not sure if this was good or bad but it DID involve some neck twisting..
Pulled up at the lights next to a guy on his open pipe Harley.
We nod at each other, recognising the American connection,
He pulls away, getting about a car length ahead when suddenly he starts looking all over his bike as if it's broken.
All I could think was "that's MY CAR you can hear mate, I can't even hear your Harley!" :lol::headbang:
I think this is now the golden standard for Mustang exhausts in Australia.
"Does it drown out a Harley?" :ninja:

ha ha ha!! Love it! I've done the same thing already too and it's so much fun! I did it to Monaro a couple of weeks ago too who was very surprised my Ford could overpower his LS.

That is hilarious! Harley guys seem to appreciate them more than the general public. Great stuff!

Off topic I know, but has anyone been asked by or had comments from strangers about the 2 star thing ?

Back on topic, our PPONY drew crowds whilst parked on the street during our Christmas trip to Tassie.

ie: Richmond, Ross, Hobart etc.

Lots of comments including one lady who called it the most beautiful car she had ever seen ( whilst we were waiting to get back on the ferry to Victoria ).

Another young lady taking photos of my rear end.

:eyebulge:

The rear polarising filter does a good job in this instance of minimising reflection from the parcel shelf onto the rear window.

So this is something I have been wondering about.

have you put a polarizing lens on the thinkware camera itself?
or applied a filter in an editing program afterwards? (not sure if that even works)

but yes the reduces glare/reflection is something id like to apply to my footage.

What are you pointing at?
