Congrats Ron! That’s great to see the video of the very first test drive… priceless. The 427 just sounds awesome…. nothing like a pumped up LS7. Enjoy!

Good stuff buddy!
She is a serious car!
You should've had the camera pointed at the passengers, would have liked to see the expressions on your faces.

The rear is a 3.70 and the maggie is a close ratio. GF bought me the GoPro 3+ Silver. Matt was real impressed with the iPhone controls , but the playback is very cool.
Didn't know that about zinc........buy it to wear if off?

3:70 & CR appears to be the ticket. 1st - 2nd looked and sounded nice.

Wasn't sure about the audio on the GoPro and I don't trust them! I had to install new firmware in my 3 and it helped the audio a lot. I'd check their website for firmware info. Also, anytime you can run without the waterproof case I would. Especially since they now have protected lenses on the camera. Use this mount: http://gopro.com/camera-mounts/the-frame

Yep, you almost have to turn it off during dinner. Plus Gae and Vince have that Bro-mance thing going on
That was definitely some intense Bro-mancing!

Just think... the glass might be installed by 2015! Now that's exciting.
