A walk around the IROC (video)

I was just playing around with my new video camera and took a stroll around the IROC. Figured I could try out google's video hosting too - so here it is, nothing special but anyways...

Thanks guys!

Midwest Muscle,
Yeah, there aren't many verts in Norway in the first place - and mine has some exterior/interior changes that I have yet to see on another thirdgen in the country. So I guess it's kinda unique here. BTW, saw a stock 89 black vert listed for sale here for $36K. It was sold in a week!

CamarosRUS,
LOL. I was actually referring to the video as nothing special as it was just a walk around the car - no driving etc
Yes, those are all crystal clear H4s and as you saw - Toyo Proxies.

Shawn,
Made myself dizzy too
The camera is a JVC GZ-MG50E, a 30gb HDD camera. The original quality is a lot better than what you can see from the Google Video as it has been compressed from nearly 70mb to around 12 I believe.

Yes, I have planned to shoot some videos of the car moving a little bit

You all may hear that she doesn't exactly run clean in the video. I'll take a pic of the sparkplugs I pulled out yesterday and you'll understand why!

conlinj,
Yes Im sure. And yes, it does look like an ASC car, because the same parts are used. CCC bought parts for conversions from ASC before their conversions became "factory conversions".

gcgarner,
Thanks! Thats a full Edelbrock exhaust - headers to tips. I'll shoot a video while driving through some tunnels, that really makes the sound come out
