Posted pics in Dec in GT3 forum, those that frequent that forum will most likely have seen this. Car was delivered in Dec, ran across this thread and figured I'll play. Car was delivered in Dec, 2010 GT3 with 4.0 motor build. Will take off the decals when I break it out of storage in spring

Nice! What is that in the video, pacecar light mode? Does it do that in reverse all the time or did the delivery driver hit a button?

Not sure why the yellow blinkers would be cycling then. I think it's a pacecar light package but guess we'll find out soon enough.

That is simply the effect of a rolling shutter on a phone cam with the hz of the LEDs. A similar effect through principle though via different mechanics was flickering CRT screens in amateur or lower quality video.

LEDs do not normally 'flash' but in auto applications the hz setting regulates the intensity (brightness) of the LED and helps with heat dissipation. That is why you see the brake lights (higher intensity) 'flash' at a different frequency from the tail lights.

Science!

OPP: I remember your post in the GT3 section. Congrats on the car and 4.0 build and cool to see more Chicago guys on here.

What he said. This explanation is way above my pay grade but I'll agree. See this effect in many on track videos

Can't wait for some warm weather in Chicago to break it out!
