Duke,

nice videos, if you get some open cell foam and place it over the mic holes on the camerra it stops the wind from hitting it directly and you will get the sund without the wind noise (thats why all those pro cams have the afros on their mikes.. kills windnoise lets sound in)

I see on the tube you say you are now going with the torque arm, it will also help with the nose lift you are getting under acceleration.

Killing me

Your killing me, I'm trying to buy the right Tiger and I watch your video and I'm ready to buy anything that starts:) Curious the specs on the motor have you posted that before , and is it a stock 4 speed top loader? Thanks for the vids they remind of why I missed owning a Tiger.

Hey Frank,

It has the stock HEHE tranny.

Engine - with a Holley 600 DP: 416 HP, 415 ft-lbs torque.
All of the details can be found here - http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1255824721370.2034409.1402147496&l=33c2567b45

You know the deal, the right Tiger is the one you build to your own desires. Currently I want a Tiger that can whoop anything on the road. That may change over the years. The sweet running 260 is on a stand in the garage.

Just made some driving videos. The main point was to hear the engine as I go through the gears.....too much wind noise with the top down.

Duke, I use a mic I purchased at a local guitar/music store.
If your camera has an external mic jack this is the way to go for better sound. When the external mic is plugged in it mutes the camera mounted internal mic (usually) Then you can secure the external mic anywhere you can reach the cable to and fit the mic into. I have taped mine under the dash, to the rear bumper, to the floor near the shifter, under the passenger seat, under the hood and even to the hood during a certain parade. With an external mic you can also purchase a MUCH better mic than what usually comes with most video cameras and the sound is even better because of it. Also, most external mics come with a wind sock as well should you need the extra filtering. Good luck and have fun.
