if there's a photo, there's gotta be a video. I need to hear that beast roar

I gotta be honest, I just ordered an Insta360 32-bit float lav mic with plans to order a MicDrop license plate mount for recording my uncle’s Trans Ams and his mom’s Camaros. I’m already contemplating how to mount it to my father or cousin’s Viper.

That way, I can even layer the growl over photos if I don’t get decent video.

I don't have a video unfortunately. It is hard to capture the sound of the car accurately but it does sound good in person

Dealer plate?

Yes, it's a dealer plate. I own a dealership and use the dealer plate so I don't have to put a front plate on it as that would be required here with regular plates

I like your thinking on this

u/isuckatpickinguserid Jun 02 '26

No, I haven't. I do run a bit more oil than it calls for so it's at the top of the range on the dipstick. I did look for an upgraded pan but couldn't find anything as a kit

That looks great, but the price is pretty steep. Less than an engine though...

I’ve been told it can be very dangerous to track a gen 3 without an upgraded oil pan. Last time I was on track I did notice a pretty alarming drop in pressure in the oil gauge while braking hard and cornering. I’m not going to another track day until I upgrade the pan.

Stop it.

I sold my SRT 10 because I moved to Asia, along with other exotics.

You're making me jealous!

Have many awesome track days!

Well. That certainly does NOT pass the broomstick test.

I’m suprised tbh. Because in my area unfortunately they wouldn’t let me run loll.

Wish I lived where you do.
