    Okay, so who’s the guy with the camera. When was the drive? Who’s in the Vette?

    Looks like fun.

  2. Joe says:

    And did you really say, “It’s time to rock and roll”.

  3. Dave says:

    All questions shall be answered.

    Craig. He works at Western Reserve PBS.
    August. We used the footage in math nMotion.
    Duilio is driving the Vette.
    It was fun.
    I most certainly did not say “it’s time to rock and roll”.

  4. Joe says:

    Who’s the guy taping the camera onto the bumper in the beginning of the video?

  5. Dave says:

    That’s Craig. He strapped the camera to the front of his Subaru. In another clip, the camera is on the back bumper of the MINI while he chases me around the track.

  6. Joe says:

    Craig is the rock and roll culprit at 0.39 seconds.

  7. Dave says:

    Yes, that’d be Craig. He’s a funny guy.

    We were rocking and rolling. On that back straight we’d do around 105. That’s around 170 kph to you funny metric people.

    Are you sure that’s not my drive into the arb in the morning?

  9. Dave says:

    As long as it isn’t snowing. Or raining. Or too sunny out. :D

  10. maz says:

    So you’re saying that a Subaru was able to keep up with you?

  11. Dave says:

    The funny thing was that the MINI was the fast car through the tight turns (way faster than the Vette), but both the Suby and the Vette were faster on the straights. If I’d been in front of the Vette going through the turns, I don’t think it’d have been able to catch up.
