Sub, I didn't know you were Ed O'Neil's brother. Car sounds great! Love the red leather. Stay off those yellow lines.

Thanks. I think it sounds pretty good too. Exhaust setup is the standard stock PSE. I also have SC and I was in sport mode at the time which gives the burble.

On the video, I think my 911 sounds better than my 981 w/PSE on videos. In person, the Boxster sounds better. I love the NA sound but the 991.2 sounds pretty good too.

That is funny! I had to look up the name....but yeah. I don't know what happened to me. I'm getting old. Two years ago I was running triathlons and 25 pounds lighter.....and a bit more hair. Lol. But I still drive two cool Porsches. Can't complain about that!

I look at yellow lines like the speed limit...right or wrong. It's a personal risk but as long as I don't put other people's lives in danger, I'm ok with it.

The greater risk in my neck of the woods is deer (during rutting season now) and cyclist which I am one also.

In the summer time without any wet leaves laying around and using summer tires, I am much more aggressive on this route. I know it well but also pace the road before hand to ensure the route is clear of cyclist.

Fun video, but I agree that crossing the yellow line is way worse than speeding. There was a crash in the hill country not long ago where a YouTube douche motorcycle rider with a history of dumb crap and bad accidents was crossing the line repeatedly and he came around and hit a Cayman head on. The guy landed a few hundred feet away and totaled the Cayman, who was a local PCA member. The cyclist spent significant time in the hospital.

You never know what's around the corner in the other lane. Stay safe.

Love the route. Miss that part of the country. Went to grad school in DelCo and in Wilmington.

I have enough free time to criticize this guy's terrible driving, but not quite enough free time to film my own erratic and stupid driving and share with the forum.

I've witnessed way too many injuries and avoidable accidents on the great roads around me as a result of selfish people driving like they own the road. Seeing that stuff makes me cringe.

You know you can get a power cord for that detector that you can route around the window rather than hanging down.
Amazon Amazon



Here is one I did last year in the NC mountains where (they say) the leaves are second to only NH.

Completely agree. Nobody needs to hit the apex on the street. If you really want to drive like that, take it to the track. Completely careless, reckless and inconsiderate.

I’m that second guy. Driving like that on a public road with other traffic when he isn’t even going fast enough to warrant “hitting the apex” or driving like a jerk is just wrong.

Great video! Is the External mike a GoPro accessory you can buy directly form them? I did not see anything like that on their website (I have a 3+).

I didn't get it from GoPro but I am sure they have a solution.

You have to use a Mic adapter and a separate 12' external mic. I got them off amazon.

Here is the adapter:
Amazon Amazon

Here is the mic w/ 12' of cord:
Amazon Amazon

Enjoy. It makes for good sound and gets rid of the wind buffeting.

OK, so why did most of us trash the DB who made motorcycle videos until he crossed the center line and crashed into that Cayman? Is the only difference getting away with it?

The fake backfire sound would drive me nuts.

Honk if you see a 993 white cab with blue top and stay in your lane!
