It's the lack of creativity.

Check out my buddy Mitch's video here, for example. He's just screwing around and filming inside the Architects Of Air

Check out his channel for other examples. If everything in the video is a static mounted camera on the side of a car and that's all you see for 4 minutes, I totally agree, but I think you're only limited by your imagination as to how professional you can make any sort of footage--GoPro or otherwise. I'm a newb, but I've been learning a lot and hope to have some things worth showing off soon.

Never the less, my next big purchase is going to be a vDSLR most likely. I've come to realize this is something I'm really interested in as a hobby and possibly more.
I hear ya, and that's good that you're enjoying it. I have one too and I'm just like, meh... Of course i am a pretty experienced editor/videographer and have handled a lot of high end cameras. Yes, you can do some neat albeit basic stuff with a gopro, but I just enjoy having more control and more functions in my equipment. It will be a good tool for you to learn/experiment with the most basic principals, but it can also lead to repetitive, annoying, overly creative newbie angles, etc.

All that aside, they are still fun, and I look forward to seeing your footage!

Finally got the single setup on:

- Spracing ceramic coated tubular manifold
- PTE Billet 6265 polished w/ ceramic coated turbine housing
- PTE 46mm gate
- 4" downpipe to 4" midpipe
+ all the other supporting mods to install and fit this setup. I still need to install my fuel mods and figure out an inexpensive clutch for the w58 that will hold 400whp without being harsh on the tranny.

That is VERY clean. Props.
Check out the ACT street clutch, i know of several 420+rwtq cars running their organic clutch and it holds very well.

Current look of the car. Its more or less back to a stock OEM appearance.



At least until I get the track bumper redone and the engine boosted. XD
