After viewing Michael Aivaliotis and Mike Moon's driving videos during Vlomo 08, I remembered some old footage I had driving my Saab 900. So listen to some copyrighted music and take a quick drive in the Saab. Lets motor away.
Oh god. How I miss driving, American stop signs, seeing minivans pass in a neighborhood. The guy you passed on the bike? That's me now. It is a lovely breath of fresh air, but I miss the view from behind the wheel. That's also the perfect soundtrack - talk about driving music. Thanks for showing me the thing I miss the most about life in the US. It was such a nice ride.
was it some time away from the boys or the girl or listening to the tunes that only sound great when you are in the same box as they are and you're moving or just making sure in your mind that the car still can move you not just A to B but in that special way that you feel sitting in that seat and going ... where was it i was going ... doesn't matter just crank up a tune and roll
i felt like i was right there with you right down to the fuzz of the seats and clinging to the seat belt to be sure it's fastened and that i can release it when we roll ahh yes i love to drive but not so much to be driven
it made me feel good --- i'm goin' for another spin buckle up !!!

This is obviously part of a sub-genre. As well as the ones you mention I also like watching David Lee King's driving videos.
As a technical question - how/where did you mount the camera? Whenever I have tried this I have not found an obvious place to put it.
@Frank-A tripod with two legs on the rear floor and one leg on the rear seat. Bungee cords were used to keep it from shifting.
