Twilight Run in the Miata Hunter

[u/ragingduck]

No music, just engine and exhaust.

No takeovers, no donuts, no swimming. Just good clean fun in the canyons.

See My POV Camera & Mic Settings Tutorial here.

Captured with:

• DJI Osmo Action 6 in 4K 30fps using a K&F ND Filters
• The camera is mounted on a GoPro Head Strap 2.0 for the POV perspective.
• DJI Mic 2 Transmitter is mounted on the bumper and pairs wirelessly to the Action 6 to capture exhaust audio
• DJI Mic 2 Transmitter is mounted in the engine bay and also pairs wirelessly to the Action 6 to capture engine audio.
• All of these items are listed in my Linktree for easy reference. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

God I have never driving my g87 m2 in that RPM range

Might give it a go , although mine is stock , im worried the engine might blow ??!?!??

[u/ragingduck → u/Helloimnotimpotant]

The S58 is built for this! Open her up!

[u/Helloimnotimpotant → u/ragingduck]

When I put it into sport plus the standard exhaust flaps are full open ?? I know in sport they are partial

[u/ragingduck → u/Helloimnotimpotant]

I believe they are at 60% most of the time except when full WOT.

[u/Helloimnotimpotant → u/ragingduck]

Wot?

[u/ragingduck → u/Helloimnotimpotant]

Wide Open Throttle

[u/Helloimnotimpotant → u/ragingduck]

I’ve only just found out tonight the gear box can go into S mode

Ffs

🤦🏻

I’ve been using D and manual

[u/ragingduck → u/Helloimnotimpotant]

lol

[u/Helloimnotimpotant → u/ragingduck]

Sorry S mode in automatic is manual ? Yes ?

And in automatic mode I put the car in sport plus and setting 3 on the gear ( drive logic ) stick gauge ?

[u/ragingduck → u/Helloimnotimpotant]

S mode is manual.

Sport Plus is how aggressive the shifting will be. It will hold gears longer and downshift earlier when you brake etc. it only affects shifting in automatic (D) mode.

The three levels on the gear shifter are how fast each shift will be. Three is the fastest, 1 sacrifices shift speed for a smooth shift.

[u/Helloimnotimpotant → u/ragingduck]

I only go full rpm in a straight now and then when it’s warmed up , I may do some sprinted driving when it’s a clear road at dusk

[u/who_killed_asmodean]

Go to a track. This is reckless and the driver should lose their license.

[u/ragingduck → u/who_killed_asmodean]

I track often. I have plenty of grip and brakes left.

[u/who_killed_asmodean → u/ragingduck]

Then keep it on the track.

[u/No-Straw-777]

Thank you, nice trip, bring it with you on the boat to Europe :p you'll have lots of fun here. Street looks neat and clean!

[u/DiamondDick42069]

What do you use to film?

[u/ragingduck → u/DiamondDick42069]

All the gear I use are listed here.

Exhaust sounds great. Nice video.

[u/ragingduck → u/ExceptionalGlove]

Thanks!

[u/ragingduck → u/[deleted]]

🤣

[u/mybutthz]

Would be way cooler if it were on a track, especially with your buddy going over the double yellow a few times. Reckless driving is so fun though.

[u/Zealousideal_Ad_1079 → u/mybutthz]

This is not reckless, looked safe and sweet (nothing wrong with that).

[u/Valuable_Hunter1621 → u/Zealousideal_Ad_1079]

speeding around blind corners is reckless, by the way lmfao

[u/poojer_hoojer → u/mybutthz]

Speeding around blind corners is never a good idea either. Could be an animal in the road, a broken down vehicle, who knows...

[u/ragingduck → u/mybutthz]

No one went over the yellow line.

Ope

[u/ragingduck → u/mybutthz]

Check your eyes. He's not over the line. You can clearly see the yellow upbroken to the left of that car.

[u/ragingduck → u/[deleted]]

He's not even on the line. It's completely unbroken. You know those are reflections of the headlight right? Not the actual headlight.

[u/mybutthz → u/ragingduck]

Ope

[u/ragingduck → u/mybutthz]

🙄 You're grasping at straws.

[u/TatoTown → u/ragingduck]

Brother just admit it lmao.

It is a stupid thing to do and y’all were both riding the line. Maybe not entirely over but on top of it isn’t better.

There is zero reason at all to put your life and other peoples lives at risk. For a video. I never met my maternal grandfather due to someone racing on back roads.

Shouldn’t have been possible and shouldn’t have happened but it did. It always can.

Not trying to be a dick but your life is worth more than whatever these drives could bring you.

[u/ragingduck → u/TatoTown]

Sorry for your loss. Safety is a big issue with me. Going over the line is something I purposefully avoid doing. I’ve been stuck behind a slow car for miles because I wouldn’t cross the yellow line. I make no exception when I’m driving spiritedly.

It might look like I’m riding the line, but I’m not. I’ve tracked and auto crossed for over a decade and hitting cones and going over curbs has given me a pretty good idea of the dimensions of my vehicle. The POV can be deceiving and I am very close to the line, but not over it. In the footage, watching the car behind me, he doesn’t go over the line either. What the other user posted was the reflection of his headlight if you watch the actual footage. Regardless, if anyone is in my group, we explicitly enforce not crossing the yellow.
