    DRLA 40s on a 1600 twin port...

    Anyone got a Gopro Hero 3

    Was lucky to pick up a "white" in the states just before Christmas at $ for £s. Brilliant, although I've not had too many chances to play with it yet. The wifi feature is very, very cool.

    What did you do with your early bay today

    Dropped the rear end by a spline; she's now sitting about 1 degree nose down. Which I think is close enough. Pics tomorrow if the sun comes out!

    Vdub Island Pics

    Not my work but my better half's. Shots from the festival and the drive-out; by no means all are early Bay related, but they do give a flavour of what a relaxed and sunny time we all had.
