nice...need a better camera though. nice footage captured though

Thanks guys, yeah people do some weird things to their vans here, and yeah I do need a better camera with good night time resolution, it works great during the day/good illumination but it sucks at night and the auto focus goes haywire sometimes...

the camera was the only thing wrong with it. and i was expecting jet engines to sprout from the van at any moment

Interesting, so i guess it cheaper to have a super loud van then a fast civic over there.

Good compilation, man. The toning down of the music to hear the engine sounds was a nice touch - it was a little bit sharp of a drop off, but it's a good idea. Overall - not bad.

...and good lord, the wheelspin on that first race... thought they were about to go drifting by, rather than drag-racing... sheesh!

Thank you, glad you all liked it. I see what you mean, yes that tone down was too sharp, I'll keep in mind to smooth those out for my next video

maybe for the focus issue zoom in full on put it on manual focus and focus on something then unzoom and walla focus sorted......

I hear that a lot from people that have lived here before, yet they don't like it too much when they are actually living here... I guess this is one of those places that you love and hate all at the same time
